The CAN/CSA-S806-12 was found to be overly conservative. Thus, modifications were proposed to the current CAN/CSA-S806-12, whichwere found to provide slightly better results.doi:10.1617/s11527-015-0680-9Hassan, M. M.Cairo UnivDeifalla, A....
This paper presents an alternative approach for calculating the longitudinal strain parameter, εx, when using the CSA A23.3:19 torsion provisions for reinforced concrete members. The proposed method explicitly calculates εx as the average of the strain
