Reinforcement

There are three basic types of reinforcement in deep beams.

• Main reinforcement.
• Vertical reinforcement.
• Horizontal reinforcement.

In the case of deep beams, one may also differentiate the following particular cases.

• Deep beam with a uniform load applied in the lower part (suspended load).
• Deep beam with a concentrated load applied .
• Deep beam in the SLS .
• Deep beam as a cantilever.
• Reinforcement of openings.
