Table 1 Maximum response limits for reinforced concrete (ASCE/SEI 2011).
From: Numerical Assessment of Reinforcing Details in Beam-Column Joints on Blast Resistance
Element type | Superficial (\( {\mu}_{max} ) \) | Moderate (\( {\theta}_{max} ) \) | Heavy (\( {\theta}_{max} ) \) | Hazardous (\( {\theta}_{max} ) \) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
Single-reinforced slab or beam | 1 | 2° | 5° | 10° |
Single-reinforced beam-column | 1 | 2° | 2° | 2° |
Double-reinforced beam-column without shear reinforcement | 1 | 2° | 2° | 2° |
Double-reinforced beam-column with shear reinforcement | 1 | 4° | 4° | 4° |
