C1Problem description
This section was machine-translated by DeepL.

The following example is intended to verify material-non-linear calculations of reinforced concrete beams.

Fig. C1-1 shows the dimensions and reinforcement of a beam with a total length of l = 3.3 m. The beam is supported by steel plates resting on freely moving roller bearings. A steel plate is positioned above this. The load is applied at the centre of the beam by a hydraulic press. The material properties of the concrete were determined from a total of twelve cylinders with a diameter of 150 mm or 300 mm (see Tab. C1-1).

The stress–strain curve for the longitudinal reinforcement is shown in Fig. C1-2.
