| Abstract | This thesis is concerned with the application of bending-torsion interaction theories to reinforced concrete grid structures. Failure criteria for members subjected to bending and torsion proposed by several investigators are studied. Among these, that due to Ramakrisnan is physically and
mathematically acceptable and takes a very simple form. It is therefore adapted in this work.
Two reinforced concrete grids were designed and constructed. These were analyzed by equilibrium and energy methods. The predicted load is close to the largest load which can be Sustained and gives a safe estimate of the failure load. Membrane action is not taken into consideration as its
effect tends to increase the failure load |
