Finite Element Analysis of Bearing Capacity of RC Beams Retrofitted with External Bars
In this paper, results of the nonlinear finite element (FE) analysis of twenty numbers of RC beams are presented and validated using the experimental results reported elsewhere. The nonlinear behavior of RC beams with external bars is quite complicated due to the involvement of heterogenic and crack...

Digital Library of Periodicals of National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine| Summary: | In this paper, results of the nonlinear finite element (FE) analysis of twenty numbers of RC beams are presented and validated using the experimental results reported elsewhere. The nonlinear behavior of RC beams with external bars is quite complicated due to the involvement of heterogenic and cracking behavior of concrete. Also, modeling of external bars at the soffit level anchored at the ends is different from the conventional reinforcing bars due to lack of bonding at the soffit level. The finite element modeling is carried using SOLID65, SOLID45, LINK8, and COMBIN39 elements |
