This paper investigates experimentally the shear strength behavior of reinforced concrete
(RC) beams cast with Lava lightweight aggregates as a replacement of normal coarse …

Shear failure of reinforced concrete (RC) members belongs to brittle failure and has always
been concerned. In this paper, 16 existing shear strength models of RC slender beams have …

Shear strengthening of reinforced concrete (RC) beams has been done by bonding steel or
carbon fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) plates or sheets on the beam sides. Beam sides …

A calculation method for the prediction of the shear resistance of precast composite beams,
named Hybrid Steel Trussed-Concrete Beams (HSTCBs), is herein proposed. HSTCBs are …

Light weight construction using Glass Fibre-Reinforced Polymer (GFRP) bars and structural
light weight concrete (LWC) have increased recently and offers a wide spectrum of …

A new equation for the shear strength of non-prestressed reinforced concrete (RC) beams is
proposed. The proposed equation is consistent with the shear strength equation for …

To assess experimentally the effect of flexural near surface mounted (NSM) carbon fiber-
reinforced polymer (CFRP) bars mounted on the sides of beams on the shear strength of …

Despite significant experimental, numerical and analytical research, the shear behavior of
reinforced concrete members remains one of the least well understood mechanisms in …

Steel plate Concrete (SC) has been used for the shield building in nuclear power plant
AP1000 recently. However, the minimum shear reinforcement ratio for SC beams is …

Current ACI 318 code requirements for determining the shear strength of concrete beams
are separated into two distinctly different methods: one for nonprestressed reinforced …
