Abstract

A commonly used material model for reinforced concrete walls is the modified compression field theory. In this paper it is shown that this model predicts a too high strength for low reinforcement ratios. A modification is proposed to improve the material model. The accuracy of the solution is shown and size effects are demonstrated.
