Shear Response of Fibrous High Strength Concrete Beams without Web Reinforcement

Shear Strength of Slender Reinforced Concrete Beams without Web Reinforcement

This paper attempt to predict the shear strength of high strength concrete beam with different shear span of depth ratio without web reinforcement. The large data base available has been clustered and a linear equation analysis has been performed . The prepared models are functions of compressive strength , percentage of flexural reinforcement and depth of beam. The proposed models have been va...

Two-Parameter Kinematic Approach for Shear Strength of Deep Concrete Beams with Internal FRP Reinforcement

Tests of deep concrete beams with internal fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) reinforcement have shown that such members can exhibit lower shear strength than members with conventional steel reinforcement. To model this effect, the current paper proposes an approach based on a two-parameter kinematic theory (2PKT) for conventional deep beams. The 2PKT is built on a kinematic model with two degrees ...

Bond of Reinforcement in High-Strength Concrete

This paper describes an examination of the development of tension lap splices in high-strength concrete and the applicability of the restriction in the ACI 318 code where the values of √fc′ used to calculate development length shall not exceed 100 psi. The focus is on the development of splices with Grade 60 epoxy-coated and uncoated bars in normalweight concrete. A summary of the behavior of b...
