Abstract:
The failure behavior of a reinforced concrete corbel is complicated due to the shear span-to-effective depth ratio, reinforcement patterns, load conditions, and material properties. In this study, an optimum first-order indeterminate strut-and-tie model that reflects all characteristics of the failure behavior is proposed for the rational design of reinforced concrete corbels with a shear span-to-effective depth ratio of less than 1.0. A load distribution ratio that transforms the indeterminate strut-and-tie model into a determinate model is also developed to help structural designers design r

Abstract:
The strut-and-tie method is a rational approach to structural concrete design that results in a uniform and consistent design philosophy. A strut-and-tie model has been developed to model the punching-shear behaviour of thick concrete plates. This model provides a quick and simple approach to check the punching-shear behaviour. Thick concrete slabs (250–500 mm) without shear reinforcement can exhibit brittle shear failure under a central force and an unbalanced moment. Shear reinforcement has proven to be very effective in preventing such failures. The developed strut-and-tie model has also be

B-Regions are parts of the structure in which Bernoulli's principle of straight-line strain is used. D-Regions are parts of the structure with a complicated variation in strain.

Strut-and-Tie Model (STM) is one of the best models to analyse the D-regions.

Investigated parameters were: position of the supports, concrete beam-masonry interface, concrete beam stiffness, type of loading, and height of masonry wall and concrete beam. Based on literature, the method proposed by Davies and Ahmed as well as the method according to Eurocode 6 were used to

Many bridges were built in Alberta after World War II with type G-girder precast concrete elements. Today, there are approximately 1500 G-girder bridges still in service all over the province. These bridges are typical short span (approximately 6 m long), simply supported, and without shear keys between girders. Structural deficiency of the G-girders, especially in shear, plus the economic constraints of the government demand that an economical and efficient method for rehabilitation of these bridges be developed.

Abstract:
The thickness, reinforcement, and concrete strength grade of railway caps in China are generally determined according to the force, yet the method for calculating the force is unclear. To date, there is no desirable calculation method for analyzing the caps. Based on the fifteen-pile thick cap of mixed passenger and freight railway, the influencing factors on cap bearing capacity were analyzed using finite element method (FEM). The variations of load-bearing capacity and mechanical behavior of thick cap were characterized by introducing rigid angle α. Results indicated that ultimate load-beari

Stiffness reduction coefficient of coupling beams (κ) can reflect the stiffness degradation degree at yield and significantly affect the seismic response and the internal force distribution. However, existing calculation methods do not consider the influencing factors comprehensively and have a limited application scope. To effectively predict the stiffness reduction coefficient of conventionally reinforced concrete coupling beams (CCBs), a simplified analysis model was established, and analysis and parameter modification were also implemented.

Abstract:
Commonly used analysis and design methods are applicable only to Bernoulli’s region or B-region where strain distribution is linear. Due to the peculiarity of the geometry for certain structural members like deep beams, corbels, etc, their entire strain distribution is nonlinear. Hence, they will act as discontinuous regions or D-regions where strain distribution is nonlinear. The designers are forced to depend on empirical relations and their past experience for designing such elements. Since, deep beams form an important structural element in bridges and high-rise buildings as pier caps and

Previous research was examined to determine the basis of the design methods and the state of current research.

Many existing self-supporting towers are built with constant-width caisson foundations. Due to the increased demand to add more antennas to the towers, and more stringent strength requirements in recently revised design standards, many existing caisson foundations require significant strengthening for additional uplift resistance. Although a number of retrofit design solutions are frequently used in practice, there is a lack of literature providing guidelines for the proper analysis of retrofitted foundations.

Pile cap is a structure to distribute load from the upper structure to the sub structure. Often the planning of the pile cap is approached as a two way slab or beam with pile as restrain, by consider the bending and shear separately. As is the case with conventional methods that consider 1-way shear, 2-way shear, and bending separately. The strut and tie model can be used as an alternative method in designing a pile cap, by approaching the stress trajectory with the truss model.

Purpose Compared with conventional design methods, strut-and-tie modeling is a more suitable and even a superior method for the reinforcement layout design of structural members with uncommon geometrical shapes and/or regions essentially subject to shear effects. Because the determination of the optimum strut-and-tie model for each of the members is an important task, the implementation of a topology optimization method could be useful before the detailing stage.

Abstract Reinforced concrete short corbels are components characterized to represent typical conditions of geometrical and static discontinuity. In general, the classical bending theory is not valid for their design. With the strut and tie method, a model of a self-balanced truss, a strategy of representation of the principal stress flow appears as a representation of the trajectories of the main stresses in these components. Within the context of obtaining the strut and tie models, topology optimization is an indicated technique for an automated process. Combined with a numerical analysis bas
