Shear Cracking Behavior of RC Beams with Side Face Bars by Stiffness Adaptation Fern Analysis
Cracking in reinforced concrete (RC) structure is a serious problem in construction industry, particularly for designers in the past and even recently.Studies of beam cracking especially shear cracking are continually conducted because it is still not clearly understood.Shear cracking has been the center of investigation in consideration with structural performance of RC structures for both safety and serviceability.Cracks with uncontrollable widths occurring in the structures can become the cause of reduction of structural performances because it can allow corrosion of reinforcements, reduce the water/air-tightness and even deteriorates its appearance.This paper focuses on the shear crack width prediction and verification using stiffness adaptation analysis in DIANA with additional horizontal reinforcing bars along sides of RC beam using existing literature.The results of the finite element analysis of the crack width and crack pattern were compared to a set of existing experimental results on the effect of the diameter and spacing of sidefaced bars.The finite-element by stiffness adaptation analysis verified the results of the experiments.
