Concrete & Steel Summary:
Five Fundamental Properties of Reinforced Concrete (Nilson pg 19.)
- Reinforced
Concrete behavior is based on stress and strain of
- Internal
normal & shear stresses at any section of a member are in equilibrium
with effects of external loads.
- Assume
tensile strength is non-existent.
- Plane
sections remain plane
- Assume
perfect bond between steel and concrete.
We can categorize Stress-Strain Behavior of R/C concrete into 5
categories.
- Uncracked
section
- Incipient
Cracking
- Cracked
Section
- Yielding
of Steel
- Ultimate
Condition
