Abstract

This paper shows a model for the T-shaped beams with straight haunches under uniformly distributed load that considers shear and bending deformations to obtain the fixed-end moments, carry-over and stiffness factors, which is the main part of this investigation. The methodology used is the conjugate beam method to obtain the rotations in supports and by the superposition method is solved this problems type. The current model considers only the bending deformations, and some authors consider bending and shear deformations for some proportions that are shown in tables. A comparison among the proposed approach that considers shear and bending deformations against the current model that considers bending deformations only are presented in the tables and graphics. A significant advantage of this paper over any other document is that is not limited to certain dimensions or proportions, and it can also be used for TT-shaped or TTT-shaped beams, which is commonly applied in highway bridges.
