The yield - line method for concrete slabs : automated at last
Synopsis The yield-line method of analysis provides a powerful means of identifying the ultimate load carrying capacity of reinforced concrete slabs. Benefits of the yield-line method are that it will often identify additional reserves of strength when applied to the analysis of existing slabs, and to highly economic slabs when used in design. Traditionally a hand-based method, the yield-line m...
متن کاملNumerical Prediction Model for Temperature Distributions in Concrete at Early Ages
A finite element-finite difference numerical model is developed for predicting non-uniform temperature development in hydrating concrete with respect to time and space. The results obtained from this model can be used by structural and construction engineers to predict critical thermal stresses induced due to differential temperatures between the core and the surface of the concrete at early ag...
متن کاملTensile Creep Behavior of Concrete Subject to Constant Restraint at Very Early Ages
Tensile stress develops in concrete when shrinkage deformations and restraints (internal or external) exist. Utilization of appropriate creep or relaxation functions is crucial for assessing stress and the associated cracking potential in concrete, especially at early ages when chemical and physical properties change rapidly. The existing models, developed either from compressive creep tests or...

متن کاملAutomated Lower Bound Analysis of Concrete Slabs
The problems caused by using different methods for the design of concrete slabs, and their subsequent reanalysis for assessment, were highlighted in an earlier paper [1]. If the original calculations have been lost it is common for structures to be condemned because the checker does not know the original designer’s logic. In many cases the design was carried out by hand calculation, often using...
