The beam is subjected to, the reinforcement ratio in the beam and the type of loading (uniform or point loads). The well known formulas available for evaluation of effective moment of inertia considered the effect of uniformly distributed load only. The test results show that the effective moment of inertia under point loads is significantly different from that obtained from the formulas. Refined models are presented here, which account for the effects of all the loading types and are compared with the test results and with other models available for this purpose. Applicability of the models as well as other models to beams of T-sections is also investigated.  ISSN : 1319-1047  Journal Name : Engineering Sciences Journal  Volume : 9  Issue Number : 1  Publishing Year : 1417 AH 1997 AD  Article Type : Article  Added Date : Thursday, January 14, 2010  Researchers Researcher Name (Arabic) Researcher Name (English) Researcher Type Dr Grade Email راجح زيد الزيد AL-ZAID, RAJEH ZAID Researcher Doctorate   Files File Name Type Description  24819.pdf pdf Effective Moment of Inertia of Partially Cracked RC Beams Back To Researches Page
