Load Bearing Capacity of Reinforced Concrete Beams Subjected to Dynamic Cyclic Loads
Publication: Journal of Engineering Mechanics
Volume 127, Issue 9
Abstract
A kinematic method is developed to determine the shakedown limits of elastic-perfectly plastic steel-reinforced concrete beams under quasi-static and dynamic cyclic loads. This procedure, like the respective kinematic approach of plastic limit analysis, is visual and easy to use in engineering applications. The load parameters (amplitudes, frequency) versus yield moment diagrams, constructed from possible collapse modes, should assist in choosing the reinforcement scheme and amounts of reinforcement to meet the load bearing requirements for the structures.
