1. 1. Shear Failure of Steel Fiber and Bar Reinforced Concrete Beams Without Stirrups : Predictions based on Nonlinear Finite Element Analyses

   University essay from KTH/Betongbyggnad

   Author : David Andersson; [2022]
   Keywords : Nonlinear finite element analysis; Shear failure; Fiber reinforced concrete beams; ATENA;

   Abstract : Shear failure in concrete beams are often brittle in nature and potentially dangerous without adequatereinforcing measures. In design of concrete, it is commonly recommended to install transversalreinforcement along the shear span to induce a more ductile structural response, improving the shearcapacity all together and providing sufficient warning prior to collapse.

3. 2. Shear Capacity of Steel Fibre Reinforced Concrete Beams without Conventional Shear Reinforcement

   University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnad

   Author : Eleonora Mondo; [2011]
   Keywords : Steel Fibre Reinforced Concrete; shear; Narayanan and Darwish´s Equation; RILEM; CNR; DafStB; post-cracking; flexural tensile strength;

   Abstract : While the increase in shear strength of Steel Fibre Reinforced Concrete (SFRC) is well recognized, it has yet to be found common application of this material in building structures and there is no existing national standard that treats SFRC in a systematic manner. The aim of the diploma work is to investigate the shear strength of fibre reinforced concrete beams and the available test data and analyse the latter against the mostpromising equations available in the literature.
