6. Concluding remarks
GM beam model:
Accurately approximates pre- and post-cracking response until bond
stress may result in cover delamination (bond-slip law is important)
Fails to capture strength and failure mode for perfect bond
Strength and failure mode for proper bond-slip law (shear failure with
diagonal tension crack)
