Concrete tension splitting mechanisms can contribute measurably to the dilatation of cracked reinforced-concrete elements, in some cases significantly affecting response. Analytical models based on the popular smeared-crack concept currently make no attempt to account for this action. Test data from reinforced-concrete panels subjected to uniaxial tension are examined. It is found that the lateral dilatation occurs at a rate roughly proportional to the incremental strains in the longitudinal (loaded) direction. Various possible influencing factors are studied, and a preliminary model is formulated. The model is incorporated into a nonlinear finite-element algorithm, providing reasonably accurate simulations of the responses observed. The correlations obtained indicate that further research in this area may be worth pursuing.
