Strut and Tie Design

This recorded webinar investigates the principles of strut and tie modelling and the use of space truss models as powerful tools for designing reinforced concrete elements, particularly where traditional flexural theory is insufficient. Emphasis is placed on non-flexural members and disturbed regions with complex stress distributions. The webinar highlights how these models allow flexibility in detailing and facilitate the description of the interaction between torsion, shear, and bending. The webinar will use practical design examples that will illustrate how these approaches can lead to more efficient and rational reinforcement layouts in challenging structural zones.
