Behavioral Investigation of Reinforced Concrete T-Beams with Distributed Reinforcement in the Tension Flange

Experimental Investigation on Shear Cracking Behavior in Reinforced Concrete Beams with Shear Reinforcement

This paper presents an experimental investigation to clarify shear cracking behavior of reinforced concrete beams. The effects of the various influential parameters on the spacing between shear cracks and the relationship between shear crack width and stirrup strain at the intersection with shear cracks were carefully investigated. It was found that shear crack width proportionally increases wi...

Shear Strength of Slender Reinforced Concrete Beams without Web Reinforcement

This paper attempt to predict the shear strength of high strength concrete beam with different shear span of depth ratio without web reinforcement. The large data base available has been clustered and a linear equation analysis has been performed . The prepared models are functions of compressive strength , percentage of flexural reinforcement and depth of beam. The proposed models have been va...

Experimental Investigation of Corrosion Cracking in Reinforced Concrete Beams Containing Nano Wollastonite

Cracking of the concrete cover due to corrosion is defined as the serviceability limit state of reinforced concrete structures. This study evaluated the influence of a mineral admixture i.e. nano wollastonite on corrosion performance and serviceability of reinforced concrete structures by performing an accelerated corrosion test on ten reinforced concrete beams under a sustained load. To do so,...
