Conclusions

  1. 1.

    The effect of an inclined face on the stress state of concrete and reinforcedconcrete members was investigated. It was established that shear stresses are a function not only of the transverse force but also of the bending moment and slope angle of the face.

  2. 2.

    Calculations showed that the presence of an inclined face favorably affects the character of the distribution of shear and principal tensile stresses, as a result of which it is possible to reduce the amount of reinforcement installed for absorbing the principal tensile stresses.

  3. 3.

    It is recommended to supplement the points of the design standards related to calculation of members on the basis of principal tensile stresses with respect to consideration of the effects of the slope of the face for the appropriate class of members.
