Practical Design with Strut-and-Tie Models
Strut-and-tie models are an especially valuable tool for designing discontinuity regions (D-regions) of structures with irregular geometry where the flow of forces is not well known, like at points where high forces are applied to a beam, for shear walls with openings or for connections of members. The latter is especially important for highly stressed members like in concrete offshore platforms. The different modeling techniques are not presented here, since they were explained by Schlaich et al as well as Reineck, like the orientation of the model by the results of linear elastic analyses, adjusting standard models or using the load-path method.
