Abstract
In concrete structures, temperature changes can cause strains of the same order of magnitude as live and dead loads in some circumstances. When thermal expansion or contraction is controlled, thermal stresses are induced. This report discusses the performance of reinforced joints under thermal loading conditions. Here we analysed the variance in stress and deflection when the temperature increases. The joints are modelled in ETABS and imported into ANSYS for further thermal analysis. The aim is to evaluate the RC beam-column joints at high temperatures in transient response. The results discuss how RC joints respond to temperature variations. The deformations with temperature variation are examined at high-temperature conditions.
