Confinement ratios
- Thread starter TEU
- Start date
Confinement refers to beam-column joints of a concrete rigid framed structure, specifically with respect to shear in the joint from connecting beams and how transverse beams help resist shear. ACI 352R-91 talks about this condition.
"Reinforced Concrete Design", by Wang and Salmon, also has a very good description of confinement [paragraph 11.3].
