Analysis of Reinforced Concrete Sections

Rectangular column

Circular column

Beam

Important Features

• Analyze designed sections, considering material over-strength, to obtain a Moment-Curvature relation coupled to shear strength

• Mander model for confined concrete• Modified UCSD model for shear strength

Moment-Curvature relation coupled to shear strength

Applications:

• To obtain M-C curve• To determine limit states• To estimate ductility capacity• To assess designed sections
