About this document
Yield Line Theory in Structural Analysis by Subalakshmi P is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The yield line theory analyzes reinforced concrete slabs by predicting crack patterns called yield lines that form when the ultimate moment capacity is reached. Yield lines are assumed to be straight lines along which the slab rotates plastically into rigid segments. The yield line analysis uses methods like the virtual work method to calculate the collapse load by equating the internal work done by moments along yield lines to the external work done by applied loads.
