Concrete is not stressed to its full value Shear reinforcement is more Compressive steel is under-stressed Tensile steel required is more than that for a balanced section
Tangent modulus Secant modulus Short and long-term values of Young's modulus Initial tangent modulus
Thrust Bending moment Torsion Shear
Durability Deflection Cracking Collapse
Aspect ratio water/cement ratio span/depth ratio Modular ratio
Bending moment is constant Shear force is zero Bending moment is zero Shear force is constant
Increase in depth Increase in width Reduction in depth No change in depth
Dependent on both long and short spans Primarily a function of the long span Primarily a function of the short span Independent of long or short span
