Nonlinear Finite Element Analysis of Diagonally Reinforced Coupling Beams with Head Bar Reinforcements

Abstract:

Coupling beams resist lateral loads efficiently is well known in coupled wall systems. In many cases, geometric limits result in coupling beams that are deep in relation to their clear span. Coupling beams with small depth-to-span ratio shall be reinforced with two intersecting groups of diagonally placed bars symmetrical along the mid-span. It's always hard to optimize construction projects. This paper used the finite element software (Abaqus) to analysis and simulate the nonlinear behavior of a new reinforcement called head bar and compared the results to the current standards.
