Model uncertainties in action effects and load bearing capacity calculation in statically indeterminate reinforced concrete structures Open
For the dimensioning and assessment of structures, it is common practice to compare action effects with sectional resistances. Extensive studies have been performed to quantify the model uncertainty on the resistance side. However, for sta…

Influence of sustained loading on resistance and deformation capacity of reinforced concrete members in compression Open
As acknowledged explicitly or implicitly in most of current design codes, a high level of sustained loading has a detrimental effect on the concrete compressive strength. However, its beneficial effect in terms of deformation capacity is n…
