Investigation of dowel action on a steel-concrete bond model for reinforced concrete structures
Résumé
Steel-concrete bond modeling has a vital importance to examine the crack properties in reinforced concrete structures. Different finite element models exist to represent this bond behavior in numerical simulations. A recent developed bond-slip model for large scale simulations is represented and tested with several simulations data on deep beams by using different reinforcement models. The Shear behavior of the reinforced concrete structures is investigated by using bond-slip model especially focusing on dowel action. Additionally, the new model is compared with the perfect bond hypothesis for the experimental test cases.
