Plastic analysis of concrete beam structure using LUSAS

Reinforced concrete structure is vital in construction industry and the demand from the users is strictly high and rises each day. Although the usage of concrete structures is being improved day to day, there is always a chance to improve the structure. The limitation of plastic knowledge on concret...

description Reinforced concrete structure is vital in construction industry and the demand from the users is strictly high and rises each day. Although the usage of concrete structures is being improved day to day, there is always a chance to improve the structure. The limitation of plastic knowledge on concrete beam behaviour has become the reason why there is still disaster that occurred everywhere.

LUSAS was chosen in this study to determine the plastic behaviour of concrete beam model and all the results were compared to experimental data for verification.
