The goal of the paper is to model and evaluate the total load capacity of the reinforced concrete beams. A non-linear analysis and finite element method were used for that purpose. The model consists of 3D finite elements. The constitutive model of concrete for the non-linear analysis is based on a fracture-plastic theory. The input parameters are the data obtained in previous tests which included both standard tests and additional tests of the testing bodies. There is no shear reinforcement in the beams. The non-linear calculations were carried out for several variants. The study takes into considerations the influence of concrete properties as well as the size of the finite elements.

This paper deals with analysis of set of reinforced concrete beams. Loading experiments of these beams were carried out and the results were documented and published earlier. Experiments involve several variants of spans, cross-sections and reinforcement so that various modes of failure of reinforced concrete structures are achieved. This paper compares the resistance of particular beams defined according to valid standard Eurocode 2 with non-linear analysis using advanced spatial 3D numerical models Cementitious material model based on fracture mechanics implemented in ATENA software. This paper outlines the wider evaluation of failure mode of beam and comparison of different calculations of resistance of the cross-section.

The purpose of this paper is looking at the dynamic response of existing reinforced concrete structures which have possibly sustained various levels of damage, a set of tests need to be identified that will be able to detect damage and quantify the damage if damage exists. In this work it is presented a further study on the effect of damage on the behavior of reinforced concrete beams. In particular, the non-linear behavior of these beams is considered once significant cracking has been introduced, outlining the stage of testing carried out in dynamic field.
