Concrete Beams With Lateral Reinforcement

Concrete Beams with Lateral Reinforcement

Beams or bending elements are normally subjected to bending moments in relation to their horizontal axis, which determines the upper and lower reinforcement of the section. If the beam is connected horizontally through a slab, reinforcement, prefabricated elements, etc., the horizontal effect of the loads does...

Reinforcement of a Concrete Beam

Reinforcement of a Concrete Beam

During the process of extending a home, a contractor will demolish a load-bearing wall. The reinforcing beam does not have sufficient reinforcement to withstand the new loads, so it is necessary to reinforce the beam in a way that allows it to withstand these loads. There...

Steel Beam Reinforcement

Steel Beam Reinforcement

1. Introduction On certain occasions, changes to the structure arise, causing an increase in the actual loads. Due to this, some elements are subjected to loads that may exceed that of their original design, making it necessary to increase their capacity through the use of additional...

Skin Reinforcement

Skin Reinforcement

DESIGN GUIDES Introduction ACI 318 modified the criteria for determining skin reinforcement in large beams. Currently, tables are still used with a distribution that does not correspond to what is established in current standards. In this work, it is intended to obtain, in accordance with ACI 318 -...

Approximate Bending Stress Formula

Approximate Bending Stress Formula

Approximate calculation for the Reinforcement of a Section subjected to simple Bending Stress Introduction On some occasions it is necessary to calculate the reinforcement in the section of a concrete beam subjected to bending stress in an approximated form, either to verify calculations obtained in programs, to...

Minimum Amount in Concrete Columns

Minimum Amount in Concrete Columns

Minimum Amount in Concrete Columns When I began to study the design of concrete, it was established by the ACI-318 design standard, and the Cuban design standard, that the minimum reinforcement ratio in columns was 1%. I participated in the elaboration of the Cuban HA design...

Behavior of a Concrete Section

Behavior of a Concrete Section

Behavior of a Concrete Section Behavior of a Concrete Section Under Bending and Flexo-Compression Loads at Ultimate Strength Fig. 1 graphically shows the process that we will be developing in this paper. This is to determine the resistance capacity of any type of concrete section with reinforcement,...
