Further Examples for the Design of Structural Concrete with Strut-and-Tie Models
Also Known As:
ACI SP-273:2010 is a special publication that contains 15 papers presented at the 2010 ACI Spring Convention in Chicago. These papers were sponsored by Joint ACI-ASCE Committee 445, Shear and Torsion, and they provide further examples and guidance for the design of structural concrete using strut-and-tie models (STM). The topics covered in the papers include an introduction to the STM method, design examples for various structural elements, common problems encountered in real design applications, additional guidance on using the STM, and an assessment of existing requirements.
The publication includes a table of contents listing the different papers. The examples provided in the papers cover a range of structural elements such as bridge piers, bent caps, foundation grade beams, prestressed end regions, stepped beams, transfer girders, dapped-end double-tee beams, link beams, cantilever beams, pile caps, diaphragms for segmental and extradosed cable-stayed bridges, and the importance of reinforcement detailing. One of the papers also discusses the comparison between STM and sectional shear design.
