Popis: | A nonlinear strain compatibility model is considered to investigate the behavior of reinforced concrete deep beams. It is based on satisfying equilibrium of stresses and compatibility of strains at all layers of the beam cross-section. A VISUAL BASIC code is developed for this model. Strain distribution over the cross section depth in deep beams is different from shallow beams, and varies according to the case of loading, the span-to-depth ratio (L/h), and the structural system. The experimental values of strain over the cross-section depth for different cases for simply supported deep beams, are extracted from the available literature. Based on these values, simplified equations for strain profiles for each case is proposed to use them in the present model. A key feature of the model is the ability to illustrate the effect of shear deformation of the cross section. The model is validated by comparing predicted results with experimental ones from literature in terms of load-displacement |
