1 | To check existing knowledge presented in design codes and practices about the R/C member behavior. |
2 | To give an information about the aims and the outcomes of nonlinear R/C members. |
3 | To give information about the major components of nonlinear response which are flexure, shear and slip. |
4 | Able to calculate load- displacement response of R/C members which include the effects of flexure, shear and slip. |
