The calculated results agree well with the experimental results. The flexural behavior of T shaped high strength concrete members subjected to axial compression and biaxial bending is studied. The main factors affecting the flexural behavior of T shaped high strength concrete members are loading angle, axial compression ratio and reinforcement ratio.展开更多

The technique is based on determining the curvature of the cross section of reinforced concrete elements with cracks and fissures in the area between cracks. The curvature of the element is calculated using a non-linear function of the deformation of concrete under compression. Approximating dependency of concrete resistance on compression developed by one of the authors is presented. An algorithm of finding the curvature and formulas for calculating curvature and deflection are provided. The function of the curvature distribution along the length of a flexible element is proposed by the authors. The paper also presents the results of the author's experimental research. The characteristics of samples tested are described. The experimental research results of deflections of fiexural reinforced concrete elements made of conventional and high-strength concretes are presented. Comparison of the values calculated using the technique with those obtained from the experimental research as well as those calculated according to existing regulations in Russia, USA and Europe is drawn.展开更多
