Moment redistribution

Concrete | May 1, 2006| | Copyright

Design codes acknowledge the non-linear behaviour at the ultimate limit state (ULS) by permitting a limned amount of moment redistribution from one part of the structure to another. This is very useful for design purposes, as bending moments can be transferred around a structure leading to simplification of the reinforcement layout or, with bonding moment envelopes, worthwhile economies in the amount of reinforcement that to actually required.

In order to achieve the designed bending moment distribution at ULS, particularly if moments have been redistributed, significant rotations may be ...
