Improvement and Application of the Softened Strut-and-Tie Model

open access: yesIOP Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineering, 2017
Previous experimental researches indicate that reinforced concrete beam-column joints play an important role in the mechanical properties of moment resisting frame structures, so as to require proper design. The aims of this paper are to predict the joint carrying capacity and cracks development theoretically.

Kinematics‐based model for shear capacity assessment of unreinforced interior beam–column joints

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract This study presents a kinematics‐based model for assessing the shear strength of reinforced concrete interior beam–column joints without transverse reinforcement. The proposed framework is built on first principles—kinematics, equilibrium, and constitutive relations—and explicitly models discrete cracks by introducing kinematic parameters such

Application of strut-and-tie model on eccentric columns

open access: yesMechanics, 2011
The popular strut-and-tie model is currently de fined by EC2 as a standard tool for simple structures. This paper explores the possibility of application of the strut and-tie model on more complex structures, specifically on the eccentric columns. Comparison with full numerical simulation shows that the strut-and-tie model can correctly predict the ...

The challenges of GFRP RC beam design for limit states

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) bars are used ever more frequently in concrete construction due to their non‐corrosive and anti‐magnetic properties. Their research over the past decades focused on fundamental questions, such as the design aspects of beams under flexural loads.

Development of strut and tie models for simply supported deep beams using topology optimization [PDF]

open access: yesSongklanakarin Journal of Science and Technology (SJST), 2008
Generally, structural members can be broadly divided into two regions, namely B, or Bernoulli regions, where the strain distributions are linear and D, or Disturbed regions, where the strain distributions are nonlinear While well defined theories are ...

Experimental and analytical investigations on the effect of steel fibers on the crack behavior and strength of dapped‐end connections

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Reinforced concrete (RC) dapped‐end connections feature a sharp re‐entrant corner subjected to high stress concentrations, leading to wide cracks under service loads and potential durability issues such as reinforcement corrosion. Effective crack control is therefore essential in the design of new dapped‐end connections. Steel fiber reinforced

Applications of truss topology optimization in the design of reinforced concrete structures using „Strut and Tie” models

open access: yesBudownictwo i Architektura, 2013
Although Strut and Tie models are often used in practical design due to their apparent concept based on truss analysis, the creation of a model consistent with behaviour of the real structure is not an easy task.

Strut elaboration in strut-and-tie model

open access: yesConstructii: Journal of Civil Engineering Research, 2012
The Strut-and-Tie Model (STM) has been incorporated into the codes and standards because of its consistency and rationality since last decade. However, it has encountered few challenges whilst its implementation. The effective compressive strength of strut has been a complex issue among researchers since emergence of STM.

Three‐parameter kinematic theory for shear assessment of reinforced concrete short columns

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract This work presents a rational kinematics‐based model for assessing the shear capacity of rectangular reinforced concrete short columns. Due to their high stiffness and brittleness, short columns are particularly vulnerable to seismic forces, often exhibiting critical failures.
