Description
Summary:Considering the tendency of reinforced concrete to redistribute load depending on the amount and location of effective reinforcement a series of experiments were performed using a non-traditional approach with set strain behavior of reinforced concrete beams during crack formation. The influence of location and number of cracks on load redistribution in double-span reinforced concrete beams was assessed. During the experiments comparative analysis of moments at support and at span was performed using uniform method of experiment. The paper presents mechanisms of load redistribution caused by non-linear deformations of a cracked element and plastic properties of compressed concrete.
