Overview

This book compiles state-of-the-art information on the behavior, analysis, and design of concrete beams containing transverse openings. Discussions include: - the need, effects, and classification of openings as well as the general requirements for fulfilling design. - pure bending, combined bending, and shear - illustrated with numerical examples. - torsion alone or in combination with bending and shear. - large rectangular openings as well as opening size and location on beam behavior. - methods for analyzing ultimate strength and serviceability requirements. - effects of torsion in beams. - large openings in continuous beams and their effects on possible redistribution of internal forces as well as guidelines and procedures for the design of such beams. - effect of prestressing on the serviceability and strength of beams with web openings. - design against cracking at openings and ultimate loads.
