Modelling crack propagation in RC beam-column joints

Accurate modelling is required to estimate crack propagation in a beam–column joint. In this study, a numerical method is developed to model crack propagation and failure loading in a beam–column joint under static load. To realize this objective, a four-node, thin-layer interface element is produce...
