Description

A half-joint is a particular type of RC structure .When using precast beams in reinforced concrete frame structures, dapped beams ends are often required in the bearing area to keep the floor structure as thin as possible. The arrangement and detailing of the reinforcement is an important factor in the performance of a half-joint. For pre-tensioned members, the prestressing force and tendons should be ignored, but for post-tensioned members the prestressing force should be considered as an external force acting on the half-joint. This paper aims to calculate dapped beam ends according to the EN 1992-1-1.

Assessment of Reinforced Concrete Half Joint According to EN -1992-1-1

Durres, Albania

A half-joint is a particular type of RC structure .When using precast beams in reinforced concrete frame structures, dapped beams ends are often required in the bearing area to keep the floor structure as thin as possible. The arrangement and detailing of the reinforcement is an important factor in the performance of a half-joint. For pre-tensioned members, the prestressing force and tendons should be ignored, but for post-tensioned members the prestressing force should be considered as an external force acting on the half-joint. This paper aims to calculate dapped beam ends according to the EN 1992-1-1.
