Abstract
Reinforced concrete members can utilize their load carrying capacity by the redistribution of moments. When sufficient rotation takes place in a reinforced concrete member a plastic hinge forms and the rotational capacity of this hinge determines the amount of redistribution that can occur in the member. Reinforced concrete exhibits different behaviours (elastic, elastoplastic and plastic) at different instances of load and this informs the different approaches in the analysis of reinforced concrete members. Of the different methods of analysis, linear elastic analysis with moment redistribution is the most used method in practice. Various studies on moment redistribution in reinforced concrete beams, hinge formation, linear analysis and code provisions have been reviewed, discussed and key findings have been presented in this study. A continuous beam was also analysed using linear elastic analysis and a moment redistribution of 20% from support to the beam spans was considered. The beam was also analysed considering the various loading combinations that gave the maximum effects at different beam segments.
