Kinematically consistent large-deflection behaviour
Principles:
• Based on small-deflection yield-line mechanism (flat facets) plus any necessary pure membrane tension cracks.
• Internal work is done in plastic stretching of rebar mesh.
• Rebar ductility to fracture can be defined. Provisionally, rebar gauge length for x or y bars is spacing of transverse bars (weld points as anchors).
• Pattern of yield lines and tension cracks must be kinematically consistent as a mechanism.

What else can this approach do?
Other capabilities:
• Continuity across slab edges (if bisymmetric),
Asymmetric boundary conditions makes optimizing yield-line pattern complex.
• Orthotropic mesh
Can even rotate the yield-line pattern.
• Non-rectangular slabs
Isosceles triangles are easy, trapezia are harder to optimize.

Increasing deflection of yield-line mechanism
Yield-line mechanism is a plastic bending mechanism at small deflections.
Yield-line mechanism is a plastic bending mechanism at small deflections.
As deflections start to increase the yield-line pattern increases the rotations of its flat facets, with the rebar yielding until it fractures.
As deflections start to increase the yield-line pattern increases the rotations of its flat facets, with the rebar yielding until it fractures.
So the initial large-deflection mechanism is Mechanism B. So the initial large-deflection mechanism is Mechanism B.
