A two-dimensional smeared crack model for reinforced concrete members is presented. Special emphasis is placedon the bond between concrete and reinforcement as the main factor influencing tension stiffening in cracked reinforcedconcrete. With the derived tangential stress-strain equations for concrete in the direction perpendicular to the cracks, theconstitutive relationship for cracked reinforced concrete is established. Experimental specimens have been analyzed withthe analytical model, and the analytical and experimental results are found to be in good agreement.
