Concrete beams are reinforced with steel in tension zone to bear tensile stresses. The amount of reinforcement provided governs the behaviour and failure mechanism in reinforced concrete (RC) beams. The failure may be of steel yielding followed by concrete crushing in case of under-reinforced and crushing of concrete in over-reinforced beams.

Failure-mode scale transitions in RC and PC beams
Current design Standards for reinforced concrete beams prescribe to respect a minimum, ρmin, and a maximum, ρmax, reinforcement ratio in the design of structures. Below ρmin a brittle failure due to unstable crack propagation is expected. On the other hand, for ρ > ρmax a brittle failure due to concrete crushing is obtained. In this framework, a reinforced …
