Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book compiles state-of-the-art information on the behavior, analysis, and design of concrete beams containing transverse openings. Discussions include the need, effects, and classification of openings as well as the general requirements for fulfilling design pure bending, combined bending, and shear - illustrated with numerical examples torsion alone or in combination with bending and shear large rectangular openings as well as opening size and location on beam behavior methods for analyzing ultimate strength and serviceability requirements effects of torsion in beams large openings in continuous beams and their effects on possible redistribution of internal forces as well as guidelines and procedures for the design of such beams effect of prestressing on the serviceability and strength of beams with web openings design against cracking at openings and ultimate loads Concrete Beams with Openings serves as an invaluable source of information for designers and practicing engineers, especially useful since little or no provision or guidelines are currently available in most building codes.
Download or read book Strength and Deformations of Structural Concrete Subjected to In Plane Shear and Normal Forces written by Walter Kaufmann and published by Birkhäuser. This book was released on 2013-12-11 with total page 159 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present doctoral thesis was developed within the framework of the research project "Deformation Capacity of Structural Concrete". This project aims at developing a consistent and experimentally verified theory of the deformation capacity of structural concrete. Previous work included the development of a theoretical model, the so-called Tension Chord Model, which allows a comprehensive description of the load-deforma tion behaviour of tension members in non-prestressed and prestressed concrete struc tures. The present work focuses on a new theoretical model, the so-called Cracked Mem brane Model. For members subjected to in-plane forces this new model combines the ba sic concepts of the modified compression field theory and the tension chord model. Crack spacings and tension stiffening effects in cracked membranes are determined from first principles and the link to plasticity theory methods is maintained since equilibrium conditions are formulated in terms of stresses at the cracks rather than average stresses between the cracks. The research project "Deformation Capacity of Structural Concrete" has been funded by the Swiss National Science Foundation and the Association of the Swiss Cement Pro ducers. This support is gratefully acknowledged. Zurich, July 1998 Prof. Dr. Peter Marti Abstract This thesis aims at contributing to a better understanding of the load-carrying and defor mational behaviour of structural concrete subjected to in-plane shear and normal forces.
Download or read book Computational Structural Concrete written by Ulrich Häussler-Combe and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2022-09-22 with total page 450 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Beton ist aufgrund seiner Vorteile der mit Abstand meistverwendete Baustoff: er ist formbar, preiswert und überall verfügbar. Kombiniert mit Bewehrung bietet dies eine immense Bandbreite an Eigenschaften und kann für eine Vielzahl von Zwecken angepasst werden. Damit ist Beton der Baustoff des 20. Jahrhunderts. Um der Baustoff des 21. Jahrhunderts zu sein, muss seine Nachhaltigkeit in den Fokus rücken. Bewehrte Betonkonstruktionen müssen mit geringerem Materialaufwand konstruiert werden, wobei ihr Tragfähigkeitspotential optimal ausgeschöpft werden muss. Computergestützte Methoden wie die Finite-Elemente-Methode (FEM) bieten wesentliche Werkzeuge, um das Ziel zu erreichen. In Kombination mit experimenteller Validierung ermöglichen sie ein tieferes Verständnis der Tragmechanismen. Im Vergleich zu herkömmlichen Ansätzen kann eine realistischere Abschätzung der Grenzzustände der Tragfähigkeit und der Gebrauchstauglichkeit erreicht werden. Dies ermöglicht eine deutlich verbesserte Ausnutzung der Baustoffe. Damit eröffnet sich auch ein weiterer Horizont für innovative Tragwerksentwürfe. Anspruchsvolle numerische Rechenverfahren werden aber in der Regel als "Black Boxes" bereitgestellt. Daten werden eingegeben, die Ausgaben ungeprüft übernommen, aber das Verständnis für die dazwischenliegenden Schritte ist oft rudimentär. Dies birgt die Gefahr von Fehlinterpretationen, um nicht zu sagen ungültigen Ergebnissen im Vergleich zu den getroffenen Problemdefinitionen. Das Risiko ist insbesondere bei nichtlinearen Problemen hoch. Bewehrter Beton weist als Verbundmaterial in seinen Grenzzuständen ein nichtlineares Verhalten auf, verursacht durch Verbund und nichtlineare Eigenschaften seiner Bestandteile. Seine Rissbildung ist ein reguläres Verhalten. In diesem Buch werden die Mechanismen des bewehrten Betons unter dem Blickwinkel numerischer Methoden aufgezeigt. So sollen auch "Black Boxes" transparent werden. Das Buch beschreibt entsprechende Methoden für Balken, Scheiben, Platten und Schalen im Rahmen von Quasi-Statik und Dynamik. Betonkriechen, Temperatureinwirkungen, Vorspannung, große Verformungen werden beispielhaft behandelt. Weiterhin werden aktuelle Materialmodelle für Beton dargestellt. Dabei werden sowohl die Möglichkeiten als auch die Fallstricke numerischer Methoden aufgezeigt. Die Theorie wird durch eine Vielzahl von Beispielen veranschaulicht. Die meisten von ihnen werden mit dem in Python implementierten und unter Open-Source-Bedingungen verfügbaren Softwarepaket ConFem durchgeführt.
