Abstract:
The failure behavior of reinforced concrete beam structural elements was modeled
using computer software, ANSYS, to create the study presented in this paper. This
study's goal was to ascertain how lower concrete and steel quality affected the way
single reinforced concrete beam structural parts failed under tensile failure conditions.
In this investigation, eight specimens of a straightforward 200x400x3000 mm with 2D16
single-reinforced beam have been modeled. A concentrated load will be applied to the
beam in the middle of the beam span until it is collapsed. According to the study's
findings, the quality of steel does not significantly change when the ultimate load is a
flexural crack, and neither does the quality of concrete, which results in a smaller
flexural capacity but a larger deflection. The crack pattern is also not significantly
affected by this change. According to SNI 2847:2019, the flexural capacity of the ANSYS
software analysis is comparable to the simplified calculation analysis, with a
discrepancy of adequately reasonable. It is advisable for the low concrete steam rength
beam with a low grade of reinforcement, whilst the higher concrete strength by using
high-grade rebar.
