Deep Beams

The document discusses deep beams and their design. It defines deep beams as structural members where the ratio of effective span to overall depth is less than 2 for simply supported beams and 2.5 for continuous beams according to Indian code IS 456:2000. Deep beams do not behave in a two-dimensional manner and require special design considerations. The key design steps for shear design of deep beams are outlined, which include determining the critical section, checking ultimate shear force, calculating concrete and steel shear strength contributions. The strut-and-tie modeling approach for deep beam design is also summarized.

Concrete structural members having depth

comparable to span are generally termed as DEEP BEAMS. As per Indian Code IS 456:2000, A beam shall be deemed to be a deep beam when the ratio of effective span to overall depth, l/D is less than: a) 2 for a simply supported beam. b) 2.5 for a continuous beam. As per the American code ACI 318-08 (2008), when the clear span to overall depth is less than or equal to 4 then they can be treated as deep beams.

Two-Dimensional Action Plane Section does not remain plane Shear Deformation Distribution of tensile stress

IS 456:2000 recommends CEB 1970 procedure for deep beams subjected to uniformly distributed load. The flexural design procedure is for simply supported beams and for continuous beams.

The shear design of deep beam is similar as shear design of ordinary beam. The difference is the concrete shear strength. Limitation of ultimate shear force. Horizontal and vertical stirrups distribution.

1. Determine the critical section to calculate the ultimate shear force Vu.

2. Check the ultimate shear force, enlarge the section if the condition is not achieved.

3. Calculate the concrete shear strength Vc

4. If Vu < 0.5Vc then no shear reinforcements needed, but for practical reason provide minimum shear reinforcement

5. If Vu > Vc then provide the shear reinforcements.

6. Calculate the ultimate shear force carried by the stirrups Vs.

7. Choose the vertical and horizontal stirrups until the condition achieved.

8. Check the spacing of shear reinforcement Sv and Sh

9. If necessary check the chosen shear reinforcements for the basic design equation for shear design.

In STM, a reinforced concrete member is replaced by an equivalent truss, which can resist the applied loads. Compression and tension zones are converted into equivalent struts and ties connected at the nodes to form a truss.

STRUT They are compression members in a STM. They represent concrete stress fields whose principal compressive stresses are predominantly along the centreline of the strut.

Different Types of Struts

TIES
Ties are tension members and they represent reinforcing steel.

NODES
Nodes in STM are the intersection points of three or more straight struts. They are analogous to joints in a conventional truss. Depending on the nature of forces, nodes can be classified as CCC,CCT,CTT and TTT nodes.

The permissible stresses in different types of struts (f cs) is given as fcs= 0.45 f cks Where fck is the characteristic compressive strength of concrete cube of size 150 mm and s is a stress reduction factor to account for the different types of struts.

The permissible stresses in different types of nodes(f cn ) is given as f cn = 0.45 f ck n where n is a stress reduction factor to account for the different types of nodes and its values are given in Table 2. Table 2 ,n for different types of nodes Type of node n CCC 1 CCT 0.8 CTT, TTT 0.6

In bridges where long spans are required. In large halls or building where no column is to be used. Situations where dimensions and span are restricted. Etc Wall slabs under vertical loads. Floors slabs under horizontal loads.
