Abstract

This paper describes how the unavoidable variations in materials properties will affect the response of reinforced concrete members. Three groups of parameters were considered: nominal strengths of materials, tension-stiffening, and constitutive models. The results indicate, in general, that there exists interdependency among variables. The yield strengths of reinforcing steel bars have the most predominance on beams carrying strength. Concrete strength has less effect on beam's strength but higher effect on deflection at service load. Axial compressive loads magnify the concrete contribution. Tension-stiffening has a strong dominance on the beams in the post cracking stage particularly for lightly reinforced beams. The shapes of the constitutive models have relatively less influence on computed strength or deflection at service load. Good agreement with laboratory results.
