Mindestbewehrungskonzept für dickwandige Querschnitte

Minimal reinforcement concept for thick‐walled cross‐sections. The objectives of this contribution is the evaluation of thick walled torrential barriers, regarding the reinforcement. For the evaluation several cross sections are verified. The minimal reinforcement according ÖNORM B 4700 [1] or Eurocode 2 [3] just depends on the geometry. The limits of these simplified rule types are shown. Especially for thick‐walled construction elements a proposal of enhancement is generated. The detailed study relies on numerical studies of the fracture behaviour.
