Strut-and-tie model based on crack band theory for deep beams

Yang, Keun-Hyeok, Ashour, Ashraf 10 1900 (has links)
yes / A simplified strut-and-tie model including size effect based on the crack band theory is proposed to evaluate the shear capacity of deep beams. Concrete struts are idealized as uniformly tapered prismatic members with a stress relief strip whereas horizontal and vertical shear reinforcements are assumed to be an internally statically indeterminate system. The shear transfer mechanism of concrete and shear reinforcement is then driven by using the energy equilibrium in the stress relief strip and crack band zone of concrete struts. The shear capacity predictions of deep beams obtained from the present models are in better agreement with 637 test results than those determined from strut-and-tie models proposed by ACI 318-08, EC-2, and Tan and Cheng. In addition, the trend of the shear capacity of deep beams against different parameters as predicted by the present models has a consistent agreement with that observed from experimental results. In particular, the present model shows that the normalized shear capacity of deep beams is proportional to (h)−0.25, where h = section overall depth.

Análise da fluência em vigas de concreto armado simplesmente apoiadas usando o método dos elementos finitos / Creep analysis in reinforced concrete simply supported beams using the finite element method

Poletto, Fernanda Alves Basílio 27 July 2015 (has links)
A fluência é um fenômeno de grande importância no concreto armado. Apesar de ser apontada como a causa de diversas patologias em estruturas, seus efeitos ainda são considerados de forma simplificada pelos projetistas estruturais. Além de estudar o fenômeno em estruturas de concreto armado e sua consideração atual utilizada na análise de estruturas, este trabalho compara as deformações de vigas simplesmente apoiadas de concreto armado, obtidas de forma analítica, e em ensaios experimentais com os resultados de simulações pelo Método dos Elementos Finitos (MEF). Os valores de deformações e deslocamentos calculados de forma analítica foram obtidos a partir de recomendações da Norma Brasileira NBR 6118 (2014) e do Código Modelo Simplificado CEB-FIP (1990), e os resultados experimentais foram extraídos de ensaios disponíveis na literatura. As simulações são realizadas no programa ANSYS Workbench, utilizando o elemento tridimensional SOLID 186 e a simetria das vigas. Posteriormente são realizadas análises de convergência utilizando o elemento bidimensional PLANE 183. Conclui-se ao final que as análises através do MEF são qualitativa e quantitativamente eficazes para estimativa dessa não linearidade e que o método de obtenção dos coeficientes de fluência utilizados é suficientemente preciso. / Reinforced concrete creep is a phenomenon of great importance. Despite being appointed as the main cause of several pathologies, its effects are yet considered in a simplified way by the structural designers. In addition to studying the phenomenon in reinforced concrete structures and its current account used in the structural analysis, this paper compares creep strains at simply supported reinforced concrete beams in analytical and in experimental forms with the finite element method (FEM) simulation results. The strains and deflections obtained through the analytical form were calculated with the Brazilian code NBR 6118 (2014) recommendations and the simplified method from CEB-FIP 90 and the experimental results were extracted from tests available in the literature. Finite element simulations are performed using ANSYS Workbench software, using its 3D SOLID 186 elements and the structure symmetry. Analyzes of convergence using 2D PLANE 183 elements are held as well. At the end, it is concluded that FEM analyses are quantitative and qualitative efficient for the estimation of this non-linearity and that the method utilized to obtain the creep coefficients values is sufficiently accurate.
