A unified approach for determining the ultimate strength of RC members subjected to combined axial force, bending, shear and torsion.

This paper uses experimental investigation and theoretical derivation to study the unified failure mechanism and ultimate capacity model of reinforced concrete (RC) members under combined axial, bending, shear and torsion loading. Fifteen RC members are tested under different combinations of compres...
