Crack Resistance Criteria for Reinforced Concrete Beams with Corrosion Damage in Strength Resource Assessment

Abstract

In the framework of ultimate state calculation methods the paper presents some propositions for stress-strain state, crack resistance analysis and failure state of reinforced concrete structures with corrosion damage at supports. The work concerns the durability of concrete and reinforced concrete elements with corrosion damage. The theory for reinforced concrete with corrosion damage is presented for plane stress state
