Stress-Strain Stress Strain Characteristics of Concrete Subjected to Uniaxial Compression
The stress-strain stress strain properties of concrete depend on many y variables among which, (a) strength of concrete and (b) ( ) confinement and (c) rate of loading are the most important ones.

Shear Modulus, Poissons Ratio and Coefficient of Thermal Expansion
Coefficient of thermal expansion for concrete can be taken as 110-5 mm/mm/C0 which happens to be same with that of steel In case of point loads Tests made at METU have revealed that the Poisson's ratio changes h significantly i ifi tl with ith th the load level. At stress t levels l l of f c/fc=0.3-0.7, 0307 the Poissons ratio is approximately 0.15-0.25. In and TS-500, it is specified as 0.20
Shear Modulus, Poissons Ratio and Coefficient of Thermal Expansion
Shear modulus also varies as a function of the load level. Various values have been recommended based on Ec and c values found experimentally using the following elasticity equation. equation
Ec Gc = 2(1 + c )
In 1967, an extensive research program was carried at METU to study the relationship between Gc and Ec. It was intended to determine Gc from two independent tests in which the same concrete would be used.
G c = 0 .4 E c
In TS-500, above is recommended to compute the shear modulus.

Tension Stiffening g
As early as 1899, it was known that a bar embedded into concrete block carries more load than that of a bare bar. Considre tested small mortar prisms reinforced with steel wires. When he subject the prism to tension he observed that their load-deformation response was almost parallel to the bare steel wire response but remained well above it it.
Tension Stiffening g
In 1908, Mrsch explained this phenomenon as follows: Because the friction against the reinforcement, and the tensile strength which still exists in the pieces lying between the cracks, even cracked concrete decreases to some extent the stretch of reinforcement. This effect came to be called tension stiffening.
