This video demonstrates a four-point bending test on a pre-stressed concrete beam. Learning Outcomes: Viewers will gain an improved understanding of: The concept of pre-stress applied to concrete beams How pre-stress can be used to create beams of increased stiffness

This video demonstrates a four-point bending test on an over-reinforced concrete beam. Learning Outcomes: Viewers will gain an improved understanding of: Brittle failure in reinforced concrete. How the quantity of reinforcement in a beam can affect the failure mode. The

This video demonstrates a four-point bending test on an under-reinforced concrete beam. Learning Outcomes: Viewers will gain an improved understanding of: Ductile failure in reinforced concrete. How the quantity of reinforcement in a beam affects the failure mode. The beam

This video demonstrates a four-point bending test on an under-reinforced concrete beam. Learning Outcomes: Viewers will gain an improved understanding of: Elastic behaviour in reinforced concrete. The beam demonstrates elastic behaviour, returning to its un-deflected position as the load is

This video demonstrates a four-point bending test on a concrete beam having no shear reinforcement. Learning Outcomes: Viewers will gain an improved understanding of: Shear failure in reinforced concrete beams The importance of providing shear reinforcement As the load is

This video shows the brittle failure of an over-reinforced concrete beam

This video shows how a reinforced concrete beam fails when the correct amount of longitudinal (or flexural) reinforcement is provided. Longitudinal steel bars are provided to resist the tensile forces in the bottom of the beam due to bending (or

This video shows how a reinforced concrete beam fails when no shear reinforcement is provided
