Shear Strength of Arch-Shaped Members without Transverse Reinforcement

Aurelio Muttoni, Miguel Fernández Ruiz, Stefano Campana

Arch-shaped members are used in many reinforced concrete structures such as tunnels, bridges, silos, or offshore constructions. They are generally designed to carry significant axial forces, and, in most cases, are not provided with transverse reinforcemen ...

Strength of arch-shaped members in bending and shear

Aurelio Muttoni, Miguel Fernández Ruiz, Stefano Campana

Arch-shaped members are widely used for construction of tunnels, bridges, silos and shells. These members are not typically provided with transverse reinforcement and may thus have a brittle behaviour at failure. When subjected to bending or shear, traditi ...

Behaviour of nodal regions of reinforced concrete frames subjected to opening moments and proposals for their reinforcement

Aurelio Muttoni, Miguel Fernández Ruiz, Stefano Campana

The strength and deformation capacity of concrete frames is typically governed by their nodal regions behaviour. This is particularly relevant for frame corners subjected to opening bending moments, where premature brittle failures may develop depending on ...

Analysis of shear-transfer actions on one-way RC members based on measured cracking pattern and failure kinematics

Aurelio Muttoni, Miguel Fernández Ruiz, Stefano Campana, Andrea Anastasi

Shear in one-way reinforced concrete (RC) members is transferred in cracked concrete members by a number of actions such as aggregate interlock, residual tensile stresses, dowelling action, inclination of compression chord and transverse reinforcement (if ...

Analysis and design of an innovative solution for tunnels using elastic-plastic stress fields

Aurelio Muttoni, Stefano Campana

For the conception of cut-and-cover tunnel, two solutions are usually considered to define the cross-section : an arch/vault or a frame. The vault enables an optimal static behavior in case of a large soil cover and symmetric loads. However, this solution ...
