Comparison between simplified and FE models for short-term deflection in continuous RC beams

Abstract In this work, a comparative study of different simplified methods and nonlinear finite element (FE) models used for calculating short-term deflections (vertical displacements of the longitudinal axis) in continuous reinforced concrete (RC) beams, under service loads, is performed. The simpl...
