Finite Element Mesh Size Effect on Deformation Predictions of Reinforced Concrete Bridge Girder

Present research was dedicated to investigation of finite element size effect on deformation predictions of reinforced concrete bending members. Experimental beams have been modelled by commercial finite element software ATENA, using two main approaches for simulating tension-stiffening: stress-crac...
