In concrete structures, what reinforcement patterns can be used to counteract the negative moment that occurs over the center column support of a beam, which tends to experience tension rather than compression?
AnswerStraight rebars can be placed above the supports for tension reinforcement, or negative reinforcement is introduced by turning upward the bottom tension steel at the point of inflection for positive moment.
