Modeling of RC Beam in ANSYS

Submitted by A. B. M. Amrul Kaish on
Dear All,



I
faced problem in modeling Reinforced Concrete Beam considering discrete
reinforcement. Its a 10'X12"X6" sized beam reinforced with 2-10mm long
bar. I first model the concrete volume, mesh it & then create link
elements individually. The model shows ultimate load, deflection, mid
span stress very much close to theoretical values. But the problem is:
it doesn't show any crack/crush in concrete. I tried to get it, but
failed.



Is there anybody, can help me in this regard??????????? If anyone wanna see the Log file, please send your email address.

Thanking everybody in advance...........
