Member ductility,
Understanding the development of plastic hinges, and
Accounting for the redistribution of elastic moments that occur in most RC structures before collapse.
Thus, the aim of this assignment is to help students understand the contribution of the above
mentioned variables to the ductility of a beam cross section.
I. Ductility of slab
The following slab element shown below has a width b=1000mm, a height of h=180mm
and an effective depth d=161mm.if the slab is made C25/30 and steel S-400, plot the
moment curvature diagram for the slab at least four points.
Asc (p Ø q)
d
Ast (n Ø m)
Where:
REQUIRED: Draw the moment curvature diagram for the different sections given
below and briefly discuss the contribution of each variable.
I. To find the effect of Ast on the ductility of beam
