This paper proposes a simple method for calculating the shear deformation and the shear
capacity of reinforced and prestressed concrete elements containing shear reinforcement …

There is much research relating to shear strength of reinforced and prestressed concrete
beams. However, some current shear design provisions are still too complex to be easily …

The effect of shear deformation is not negligible, in particular for reinforced concrete beams
with thin webs and low span-to-depth ratios. However, this contribution to deflection is often …

A new approach to shear capacity of slender concrete beams without shear reinforcement
based on principles of structural mechanics is presented. It is assumed that the shear …

Even after many years of in-depth research, the determination of shear strength of structural
concrete beams still is in discussion. The reasons for that are, on the one hand, the …

This paper presents a numerical investigation on the shear behaviour of reinforced concrete
beams without shear reinforcement differed by two boundary conditions, ie, cantilever and …

The design of concrete members for shear without stirrups has become a major issue
worldwide especially for bridge decks as the shear capacity according to the …

The present rules for shear design of reinforced concrete (RC) members without shear
reinforcement according to Eurocode 2 are semi-empirical. The underlying database to …

This paper presents the theoretical development of a new approach to determining the
shear capacity of slender reinforced concrete members without transverse reinforcement …

Shear loading on structures has been recognized as one of the most relevant actions
determining structural safety since the 19th century. In the case of reinforced concrete …
