Strength deterioration due to bond slip and concrete crushing in modeling of reinforced concrete members

In the design process of a new structure or in the seismic assessment of an existing structure, the model plays an important role. There are several available models that represent the flexural behavior of columns to various degrees of accuracy. An efficient model is needed, however, for the simple and accurate representation of the behavior up to failure. A macromodel that represents the behavior of reinforced concrete members that accounts …
