A reinforced concrete beam is designed as a two-span beam with a cantilever. The cross-section varies along the length of the cantilever (tapered cross-section). The internal forces, the required longitudinal and shear reinforcement for the ultimate limit state are calculated.
A beam is fully fixed (warping is restricted) on the left end and supported by a fork support (free warping) on the right end. The beam is subjected to a torque, longitudinal force, and transverse force. Determine the behavior of the primary torsional moment, secondary torsional moment and warping moment. The verification example is based on the example introduced by Gensichen and Lumpe (see reference).
The model is based on the example 4 of [1]: Point-supported slab. The internal forces and the required longitudinal reinforcement can be found the in verification example 1022. In this example, punching is examined in the axis B/2.
A beam is fully fixed (warping is restricted) on the left end and supported by a fork support (warping is enabled) on the right end. The beam is subjected to a torque, longitudinal force, and transverse force. Determine the behavior of the primary torsional moment, secondary torsional moment, and warping moment. The verification example is based on the example introduced by Gensichen and Lumpe.
