Strut and Tie Model (ACI SP-008)
Strut and Tie Model (ACI SP-008)
(OP)
I am studying strut and tie model of ACI SP-008 and facing with the question why alpha angle of the model in the example of such ACI is 26.6 degree? It should be equal to 90-54.32 = 35.68 degree instead!

I like to debate structural engineering theory -- a lot. If I challenge you on something, know that I'm doing so because I respect your opinion enough to either change it or adopt it.
