This paper reviews the past 60 years of research on shear behavior with attention paid to the
behavior of beams ranging from shortspan deep beams to members controlled by flexure. A …

This paper summarizes the results of over 100 pure shear tests on reinforced concrete
panels. The ACI approach for predicting shear strength as the sum of a diagonal cracking …

Concrete is the most widely used man made material in the world. Reinforced with steel, it
forms a key enabler behind our rapidly urbanising built environment. Yet despite its ubiquity …

The influence of concrete mix properties on the shear strength of slender structured concrete
beams without stirrups (SRCB-WS) is a widespread point of contention. Over the past six …

A conceptual model for the prediction of the shear-flexural strength of slender reinforced
concrete beams with and without transverse reinforcement is presented. The model …

Conventionally, the evaluation of fracture surface roughness in brittle geomaterials, such as
concrete and rock, has been based on the measurement and analysis of two-dimensional …

Increasing interest in the use of fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) reinforcement for reinforced
concrete structures has made it clear that insufficient information about the shear …

In this paper, a mechanical model consistent with the main assumptions of the Critical Shear
Crack Theory (CSCT) is proposed for shear design of slender concrete members without …

A theoretical model based on an artificial neural network (ANN) was presented for predicting
shear strength of slender fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) reinforced concrete flexural …

This paper describes the development of the 2004 Canadian Standards Association (CSA)
A23. 3 shear design provisions for reinforced and prestressed concrete structures. These …
