Strut and tie modeling for RC short beams with corroded stirrups
Latin American Journal of Solids and StructuresCorrosion of steel reinforcement is one of the major problems that shorten the service life of reinforced concrete (RC) structures. Steel stirrups, due to their location as an outer reinforcement, are more susceptible to corrosion problems and damage ...

Modified Softened Strut and Tie Model for Concrete Deep Beams
Journal of Engineering and Sustainable Development, 2012 A modified softened strut-and-tie model (MSST) for determining the shear strength of reinforced concrete deep beams is proposed in this paper. It is a simplified analytical model and several improvements have been made.

Experimental evaluation of optimized strut‐and‐tie models for a dapped beam
Structural Concrete, 2016 AbstractStrut‐and‐tie modelling constitutes a powerful tool for the design of complex structural reinforced concrete elements. It has been proved numerically that strut‐and‐tie (ST) models obtained using structural optimization methods produce designs that are more efficient.

Analysis of the structural behavior of beam-column joints in reinforced concrete frames considering bending towards the reduced side of the cross section [PDF]
Revista IBRACON de Estruturas e MateriaisThe beam-column joints are called discontinuous regions and, therefore, could be designed by the strut and tie method. In beam-column joints where the bending plane coincides with the column's smaller dimension, the bending moments associated with the ...
