Structural Concrete: Strut-and-Tie Models for Unified Design

Structural Concrete: Strut-and-Tie Models for Unified Design 

Chen, Wai-Fah

Preference :

One of the most important advances in reinforced concrete in recent years is the extension of lower-bound limit theorem-based design procedures, for example, the strut-and-tie model (STM), to shear, torsion, bearing stresses, and the design of structural discontinuities, such as joints, corners, openings, and deep beams. The concept of using the method of strut-and-tie models to the inelastic-reinforced-concrete analysis was introduced and illustrated for the first time in 1961 by Drucker in his estimate of the load-carrying capacity of a simply supported reinforced concrete beam.
