Abstract
In this project a Finite Element analysis is performed on a singly reinforced concrete beam and on a doubly reinforced concrete beam. Different plasticity models are used for the concrete material in order to test the accuracy of each one of them into the Finite Element method in Abaqus. Analytical calculations are correspondingly performed in the interest of comparing the numerical analysis with the analytical result. The moment-rotation curve from Abaqus is compared with the moment capacity calculated in the analytical analysis as well as the stress and strain distribution along the cross section of the beam.
