The document outlines the steps to create a finite element model to analyze shear crack failure in a reinforced concrete beam.

The model is analyzing shear crack failure in a reinforced concrete beam under a prescribed displacement load.

The steps involved in creating the model include defining the geometry, materials, mesh, boundary conditions, and loads.
