Abstract: Abstract The strut-and-tie model (STM) is currently established as the best approach for pile cap design. This model leads to efficient estimations of the main reinforcement placed in strips between piles. However, good practices and… read more here.

DOI: 10.12989/cac.2017.20.3.329
Abstract: A new simple and practical strut-and-tie model (STM) for predicting the shear strength of RC pile caps is proposed in this paper. Two approaches are adopted to take into account the concrete softening effect. In… read more here.
