Hysteretic Behavior of Conventionally Reinforced Concrete Coupling Beams in Reinforced Concrete Coupled Shear Wall

This paper presents the experimental results of four full-scale coupling beams in which only horizontal reinforcements are placed, without diagonal reinforcements, with the aim to develop reinforcement details for coupling beams used in connecting side walls in a wall-slab structural system. Each coupling beam specimen was designed according to the deep-beam design procedure that does not use d...

Shear strengthening of reinforced concrete beams with CFRP

The current paper reviews existing design guidelines for strengthening beams in shear with carbon fibre reinforced polymer (CFRP) sheets and proposes a modification to Concrete Society Technical Report TR55. It goes on to present the results of an experimental programme which evaluated the contribution of CFRP sheets towards the shear strength of continuous reinforced concrete (RC) beams. A tot...

Development of Shear Capacity Equations for Rectangular Reinforced Concrete Beams

The problem of shear is not yet fully understood due to involvement of number of parameters. Designers are extra careful about shear, especially in beams and consequently higher safety factors are used in shear design. Several equations are available in literature to determine the shear capacity of beams, i.e. ACI equation, Zsutty equation and KIM & White equation. To verify the application of ...
