Strut-and-Tie Method (STM) The Strut-and-Tie Method is a structural analysis and design approach used for disturbed regions (D-regions) in reinforced concrete structures, where traditional beam theory is not valid. 🛑 Typical applications: - Deep beams - Short corbels and brackets - Pile caps - Regions with concentrated loads or supports - Openings in concrete members 🛑 Basic concept: The internal force flow in concrete is idealized as a truss system consisting of: Struts → concrete compression

As a result of the I-10 Broadway Curve Improvement Project, these bridges have gotten wider. The bridges are now wider by 30 feet in each direction and crews have added an additional travel lane and HOV lane on east- and westbound I-10. | Arizona Department of Transportation | Facebook
