Strut-and-tie models (STMs) are often used for the design of shear critical deep members
because they can rationalize the shear transfer within discontinuous or disturbed regions in …

In the present study, a novel cracking strut-and-tie model (CSTM) is developed to better
predict the shear strength of a deep beam. The principal concept of strut-and-tie model …

This study presents the numerical modeling of size effect in shear strength of FRP-reinforced
concrete (RC) beams with and without stirrups by finite element analysis (FEA) model. The …

The transverse reinforcement of reinforced concrete deep beams is vulnerable to corrosion
under harsh environments leading to shear-deficient beams. The use of steel fibers in the …

To investigate the shear behavior of reinforced concrete (RC) continuous deep beams with
glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) bars, four large-scale beams with a constant shear …

For the shear strength of deep beams, most of current design codes adopt the strut-and-tie
model. However, since the shear resistance mechanism of deep beams is quite complicated …

Shear enhancement occurs in reinforced concrete (RC) beams when loads are applied
within around 2d of supports where d is the beam effective depth. This paper examines …

This study aimed to investigate the shear performance of reinforced concrete corbels and to
evaluate the accuracy and safety of the Chinese code GB 50010-2010's triangular truss …

This research presents a study for the prediction of the behavior of bottom loaded
continuous deep beams (CDB) numerically by using finite element modeling (FEM) …
