[en] This paper aims at presenting a new beam finite element allowing to simulate the behaviour of structures made of concrete beam structural elements where shear can have a significant effect. An incre-mental MCFT-based constitutive law (Modified Compression Field Theory) describes behaviour of concrete. Results obtained by using this element are compared with membrane models and tests results.
