Considering Tension Stiffening Effect in RFEM
RFEM modeling of tension stiffening effect in concrete elements
The image shows an RFEM model representing approaches for considering the tension stiffening effect in concrete components. The tension stiffening effect describes the increase in the rigidity of concrete through the tensile strength of the reinforcement. In RFEM, this effect can be simulated using specific material models and nonlinear calculations to achieve more realistic results in structural analysis.
