Flexural Behaviour of Reinforced Concrete Beams With a Layer of SHCC In The Tension Zone: Numerical Study By ATENA Model

Strain hardening cementitious composite is a new generation material with increased ductility and improved cracking behaviour as compared to traditionally used Normal Strength Concrete (NSC). An important charactersitic of SHCC is the ability of the fibers (2% PVA) in the composite mixture to bridge the cracks and there by preventing...
