10 General characteristics of beams DEFINITION, INTERNAL FORCES Beams are linear members generally supporting vertical loads, with their axis running mostly horizontally and mainly being subjected to moments and shear forces along their axis (M+V). Axial force can also act sometimes (N+M: eccentric compression). Try to avoid torsion! TYPES -Geometry -Axis: straight, curved or eventuallypolygonal -Cross-section: constant, variable, haunched near supports, flanged. For ex. when cast integral with the floor slab. The way of variation is mainly in connection with the variation of moments, which can also be exploited for rainwater canalisation (see above) -Static models: Design of Reinforced Concrete Structures 10 BEAMS, FLOORS, BRACING

11 -single span and continuous with or without cantilever -beams can also be part of frames, joining to other members by hinged or rigid joint. Principal beams and secundary beams, joist floors Design of Reinforced Concrete Structures 11 BEAMS, FLOORS, BRACING

12 Estimation of the width (b, bw) and height (h): b, b w is generally determined by technological requirement: b= wall thickness or column width Columns Ribs cm): h estimate by approximate value of the slenderness ratio: l/d l/(h-5 -heavily loaded simple supported beam: l/d 10 to 12 -simple supported beam with low load intensity: l/d 14 to 16 -continuous beam, flanged beam: l/d 16 to 18 -prefabricated prestressed beam: l/d 18 to 22 2 Rigidity check in SLS of deformations (limitation of deflections) w max l /250 l Design of Reinforced Concrete Structures 12 BEAMS, FLOORS, BRACING

15 Constructional rules of beams (read through, for information only!) 1.

At overlaps the double of this quantity is allowed. Design of Reinforced Concrete Structures 15 BEAMS, FLOORS, BRACING

16 Partial restraint at beam ends: Partially restrained ends of monolithic beams must be designed for the calculated restrain moment. The respected restrain moment can not be smaller than 15% of maximum moment in the span. The section design for 15% of the span moment should be made even if the beam was considered simply supported. The rule concerning the minimum reinforcement must be respected. Anchorage of bent-up bars with straight end The anchorage length in the tension zone must be at least 1,3l bd, in the compression zone at least 0,7 l bd, which should be measured from the intersection point with the longitudinal reinforcement. Design of Reinforced Concrete Structures 16 BEAMS, FLOORS, BRACING

17 Anchorage of the bottom longitudinal reinforcement above support At least 1/3 of the span reinforcement must be continued beyond the theoretical support point. At extreme support reinforcement must be anchored for the tensile force F Ed given in point , and the anchorage should be measured from the internal face of the support. At intermediate supports one of the solutions indicated below can be applied. The mostly recommended solution is (d). The figures do not indicate the top reinforcement. Values of d b = D min are given in section Shear reinforcement Design of Reinforced Concrete Structures 17 BEAMS, FLOORS, BRACING

18 In case of designed shear reinforcement at least half of the shear force should be equilibrated by links. The shear steel ratio: w =A sw /(s. b. w sin ), where α is the angle between axis of the beam and axis of elements of the shear reinforcement The minimum shear steel ratio: w,min =max 0,08 f yk f ck ;0,001 from the table below. Values of the minimum shear steel ratio: w,min (%o) Concrete f yk C12/ 16 C16/ 20 C20/ 25 C25/ 30 C30/ 37 C35/ 45 C40/ 50 C45/ 55 C50/ ,00 1,00 1,00 1,00 1,00 1,00 1,01 1,07 1, ,00 1,00 1,00 1,00 1,10 1,18 1,26 1,34 1, ,15 1,33 1,48 1,67 1,81 1,95 2,05 2,21 2,33, which can be taken Design of Reinforced Concrete Structures 18 BEAMS, FLOORS, BRACING

20 Open links can only be applied in flanged beams, if there is transverse reinforcement in the slab. Links cages can also be bent using spot-welded meshes. Related constructional rules see in point 8.2. At junction of principal and secondary beam the links of the principal beam must go through, at column-beam junctions links of the column must go through. 3. Torsion reinforcement Links must be anchored with overlap. Spacing of links can not be greater than a) 1/8 of the concrete perimeter b) the smaller side length Distance between elements of the longitudinal reinforcement uniformly distributed along the link perimeter must be smaller than 350 mm. (In the cross-section indicated on the figure elements of flexural and torsion reinforcement can also be seen.) Design of Reinforced Concrete Structures 20 BEAMS, FLOORS, BRACING

31 DESIGN OF VARIABLE HEIGHT AND VARIABLE THICKNESS Beams Variable beam height for rainwater canalization (cca 5% fall) from flat roof of an industrial hall Favourable effect: shear capacity increase a) variation on side of the compression zone, V V N tan Ed Ed, b) variation on side of the tension zone VEd VEd Ns tan s c Design of Reinforced Concrete Structures 31 BEAMS, FLOORS, BRACING

32 Slabs Favourable effects of the self weight reduction of cantilever slabs achieved by 50% reduction of the thickness at the free extremity The 33% moment and deflection reduction can also be exploited by cca 10 to 13% reduction of the slab thickness itself.
