Reinforced Concrete Beam Detailing According to ACI Code
Clearly, the detailing of the reinforced concrete members is the key to good design and execution of work at the site.That is why poor detailing of reinforcement makes the structure undergo cracking, excessive deflection, or even collapse. Reinforcements resist tensile forces. They may also be required in the compression zones to increase the compression capacity,

On-site evaluation of concrete strength is a challenge in the assessment of existing structures. Combination of NDT methods can be used to measure strength.

Failure Modes in Concrete Beams: Flexural and Shear Failure
Failure modes in reinforced concrete beams are classified into two major types: flexural failure and shear failure. The former occurs when the imposed load exceeds the flexural capacity of the materials of the beam, while the latter occurs due to deficiency in shear resistance between different materials of the beam. These failure modes are further
