The analysis of reinforced concrete beams in flexure taking into account the nonlinear behaviour of concrete is addressed by a numerical approach based on the Cohesive-Overlapping Crack Model. An extensive experimental research has been proposed by Bosco and Carpinteri (Scale effects and transitional phenomena of reinforced concrete beams in flexure. ESIS Technical Committée 9 Round Robin proposal, 1993), Bosco et al. (Scale effects and transitional failure phenomena of reinforced concrete bea
