Numerical analysis of waffle slabs in flexure considering the effects of concrete cracking

Waffle slab structures simulated by computational model are generally analyzed by simplified methods, for both the section geometry (converting into solid slabs or grids) and for the material mechanical properties (linear elastic regime). Results obtained by those studies show large differences when...
