Modelling and Analysis of Reinforced Concrete Beams

Article Preview

Abstract:

The goal of the paper is to model and evaluate the total load capacity of the reinforced concrete beams. A non-linear analysis and finite element method were used for that purpose. The model consists of 3D finite elements. The constitutive model of concrete for the non-linear analysis is based on a fracture-plastic theory. The input parameters are the data obtained in previous tests which included both standard tests and additional tests of the testing bodies. There is no shear reinforcement in the beams. The non-linear calculations were carried out for several variants. The study takes into considerations the influence of concrete properties as well as the size of the finite elements.
