Behavior of Two-Span Continous Reinforced Concrete Beams Behavior Of Two-Span Continous Reinforced Concrete Beams A thesis presented to the faculty of the Russ College of Engineering and Technology of Ohio University In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Master of Science Colin Michael McCarty August 2008 2 This thesis titled Behavior of Two-Span Continuous Reinforced Concrete Beams by COLIN MICHAEL MCCARTY has been approved for the Department of Civil Engineering and the Russ College of Engineering and Technology by Eric P. Steinberg Associate Professor of Civil Engineering Dennis Irwin Dean, Russ College of Engineering and Technology 3 ABSTRACT MCCARTY, COLIN MICHAEL, M.S., August 2008, Civil Engineering Behavior of Two-Span Continuous Reinforced Concrete Beams (127 pp.) Director of Thesis: Eric P. Steinberg Nine two-span continuous reinforced concrete beams with point loads 4.5’ on each side of the center reaction were tested. This tested the effects of both longitudinal and transverse reinforcement on the shear strength of the beams. Results of testing the beams showed the effects of maximum shear and moment occurring at the center reaction. Three sets of three beams were constructed to examine the affect varying the amount of longitudinal and transverse reinforcement had on the flexural and shear strength of a beam. Within a set of beams, the longitudinal reinforcement consisted of either No. 3, 8, or 10 reinforcing bars. Transverse reinforcement was consistent for each set of beams. The first set of beams did not have any shear reinforcement and were used to study the effects of longitudinal reinforcement on the shear strength of a beam. The second set of beams considered the effects maximum transverse reinforcement spacing has on the shear strength of a continuous beam. The third set of beams was used to examine whether further increases in transverse reinforcement were sufficient to preserve the shear strength when the flexural steel yields. 4 Specimens with No. 3 longitudinal bars explored the flexural characteristics of continuous beams with minimum longitudinal reinforcement ratios. Specimens with larger longitudinal reinforcement were used to evaluate the effects of more longitudinal reinforcement had on the shear strength and moment distribution. A test was performed to determine deformed welded wire fabrics ability to be used as transverse reinforcement. Measured values from testing were compared to calculated values from ACI 318-05 Building Code Requirements for Structural Concrete, which provided conservative results in both shear and flexural capacity when shear reinforcement existed.

    UNIT 17 APPROXIMATE METHODS OF ANALYSIS Structure 17.1 Introduction Objectives 17.2 Substitute Frame Method 17.3 Horizontal or Lateral Loading 17.3.1 Portal Method 17.3.2 Cantilever Method 17.4 Mixed Approximate Methods Based on Existing Exact and Approximate Methods 17.5 Summary 17.6 Keywords 17.7 Answers to SAQs INTRODUCTION In statically determinate structures, the analysis of a structure is made without the knowledge of the cross-sectional dimensions of the members, whereas cross section and members' elastic properties are prerequisite for the analysis of indeterminate structures. Therefore, it becomes necessary to perform approximate analysis for deciding preliminary selection of member sizes. Approximate methods are also useful for quick checking the results of exact analysis. It is also a powerful tool for carrying out spontaneous scrutiny of design, which involves large amount of analysis. In approximateanalysis, the statically indeterminate structure is simprified to a statically determinate structure by making suitable assumptions based on the experience of the analyst. Then, the analysis is carried out by using principles of statics. The validity of the results is based upon assumptions made in the analysis. In this unit, substitute frame method is described in Section 17.2. The approximate methods such as portal and cantileyer method are explained in Section 17.3.1 and 17.3.2, respectively. Objectives After studying this unit, you should be able to conceptualise and appreciate the use of approximate methods of analysis, find out internal forces, i.e. axial force, shear force and bending moment in any member of a building frame by method of substitute frame method due to vertical loading, compute internal forces in beams and columns of a plane frame subjected to lateral loading, by using portal and cantilever methods, and find out shear and moment due to transverse loading by generalising and approximating the facts based on existing exact methods.

Without them I would not have been able to achieve all that I have up to this point. I would also like to express my gratitude to Dr. Lawrence, who gave me the opportunity to not only learn new skills but was also there to guide and help me make my work the best that it could be, and was instrumental in shaping this work into what it is today.

The wide use of engineering software comes with the disadvantage to the user of costs from the required purchase of software licenses. The creation of accurate, trusted, and freely available applications capable of conducting meaningful analysis of engineering problems is a way to mitigate to the costs associated with every-day engineering computations.

  • Shear and Moment Diagram - Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia Page 1 of 10
    Shear and moment diagram - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Page 1 of 10 Shear and moment diagram From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Shear and bending moment diagrams are analytical tools used in conjunction with structural analysis to help perform structural design by determining the value of shear force and bending moment at a given point of a structural element such as a beam. These diagrams can be used to easily determine the type, size, and material of a member in a structure so that a given set of loads can be supported without structural failure. Another application of shear and moment diagrams is that the deflection of a beam can be easily determined using either the moment area method or the conjugate beam method.
