WP 2.2.4 - Strut and tie modeling
01.11.2021 COM2: Analysis & design
fib’s WP2.2.4 is a group of structural engineers working actively both in profession and academia with interests in the field of strut-and-tie and stress fields. The group focus on developing state-of-the-art tools and design approaches based on these methods with application to structural concrete. Thanks to its practical experience and access to real cases, new and classical approaches are used for design and assessment of practical situations, investigating on their theoretical consistency and opportunities. The last major contribution of the group has been the publication of fib bulletin 100, which gathers the latest state-of-the art on the strut-and-tie and stress field methods.
