Shear failure is an important failure mode for pile caps, civil engineering structures in reinforced concrete, often used as substructures for bridges. Strut-and-tie modelling of reinforced concrete pile caps is based on a ten-pile cap and geometry of the three-dimensional nodal zones above the piles.
