ISEC 4: Innovations in Structural Engineering and Construction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
This paper presents the performance-based optimization of strut-and-tie models in reinforced concrete deep beams. The performance-based optimization (PBO) technique combines performance-based design concepts with modern topology optimization technologies

Evaluating structural resistance and updating modeling uncertainties through testing

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract The aging of infrastructure necessitates a robust and rational methodology for the assessment of existing structures. Design codes provide general models which cover different design scenarios and are thus overly conservative. Also, such design approaches lack field data and, if applied directly to existing works, often lead to unnecessarily ...

Alternative Strut and Tie Model for Reinforced Concrete Deep Beams

open access: yesمجلة النهرين للعلوم الهندسية, 2018
This paper presents a simple strut and tie model to calculate the shear strength of reinforced concrete deep beams. The proposed model assumes that the shear strength is the algebraic sum of three strength components: concrete diagonal strut, vertical ...

Localized tension characterization of reinforced concrete flexural members using surface bonded distributed fiber optic sensors

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Structural monitoring and assessment can be used to ensure the long‐term performance of structures and inform when maintenance is required by accounting for the degradation of material properties. A key force‐resisting mechanism in reinforced concrete that must be considered as part of an assessment and that can degrade over time is tension ...

Analysis and design of disturbed regions with strut-tie models

open access: yes, 1992
An interactive computer graphics program implementing the Strut-Tie model approach for analysis and design of reinforced and prestressed concrete members is presented. The program consists of three parts.

Comparison of STM’s reliability system on the example of selected element

open access: yesOpen Engineering, 2020
This paper presents optimization of the reliability system for different Strut and Tie models of beams loaded with a torsional and bending moment. In this paper, three STMs depending on the angle of diagonal strut were compared. The presented beam models

Design of Simply Supported Deep Beams Using Strut-and-Tie Models [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
A procedure to calculate the amount of reinforcement and the strength of deep beams based on strut-and-tie models is presented. The proposed design equations were calibrated using experimental results from 175 simply supported beams found in the ...

Equal before time: on the sensory suspension of accumulated time in Sichuan, China Égaux devant le temps : suspension sensorielle du temps accumulé au Sichuan (Chine)

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
Food and alcohol indulgence, along with tea‐drinking, gambling, and gossip, are integral to a characteristically Sichuanese ethos of ‘life enjoyment’ (xiangshou shenghuo). Beyond mere pleasure, sensory, ludic, and comic experiences temporarily strip participants of both their formal and subjective qualities.

Analysis of shear resisting actions by means of optimization of strut and tie models taking into account crack patterns

open access: yes, 2018
The shear resisting actions in reinforced concrete elements without transverse reinforcement is analyzed by means of optimized strut-and-tie models with concrete ties. Biaxial failure criteria are used for uncracked and cracked regions.
