Initial design errors, especially the installation of stirrups, one of them can cause the beam having shear failure due to installing capacity of stirrups less than the shear capacity that occurs. Shear strengthening in this study used externally stirrups ∅6-75 which were installed in the shear area only. The results of calculation analysis, shear capacity can increase up to 137.82%; 133.42% and 137.12% while the test results increased by 31.58%; 0% and 4.76% in this caseload did not look significant from the results of calculation analysis. However, when viewed from crack pattern that occurs without external stirrups, outer ring has a combination of flexural and shear cracks occurs quite much, besides of flexural and shear cracks, combination of crack also occurs because of pressure beam reach pressure capacity first rather than tensile beam because the ratio of installed reinforcement is over reinforced. Meanwhile, in the beam with external stirrups, the crack pattern that occurs is also a combination of bending and shear cracks, but the cracks that occur are relatively less than the beam without external stirrups. When viewed from the deflection that occurred during the first crack, the reinforced beam experienced a relatively smaller deflection of 0.61 mm beam; 0.31 mm and 0.18 mm rather than beams without externally stirrups 1.28 mm; 0.55 mm and 0.32 mm, so that the beam with external stirrups can be said to be more rigid than the beam without external stirrups. Kesalahan desain awal, khususnya pemasangan sengkang, salah satunya dapat mengakibatkan balok mengalami kegagalan geser akibat kapasitas sengkang yang terpasang kurang dari kapasitas geser yang terjadi. Perkuatan geser pada penelitian ini menggunakan sengkang ∅6-75 yang dipasang pada daerah geser saja. Hasil dari perhitungan analisis, kapasitas geser dapat meningkat sampai 137,82%; 133,42% dan 137,12% sedangkan dari hasil pengujian mengalami peningkatan sebesar 31,58%; 0% dan 4,76% dalam hal ini peningkatan beban tidak terlihat sesignifikan dari hasil analisis perhitungan, namun jika dilihat dari pola retak yang terjadi beton tanpa perkuatan sengkang luar mengalami kombinasi retak lentur dan geser yang cukup banyak, selain kombinasi retak lentur dan geser, juga terjadi retak akibat balok tekan yang mencapai kapasitas tekan terlebih dahulu daripada balok tarik karena rasio tulangan yang terpasang over reinforced. Sementara itu pada balok dengan perkuatan sengkang luar, pola retak yang terjadi juga kombinasi retak lentur dan retak geser, namun retak yang terjadi relatif lebih sedikit daripada balok tanpa perkuatan. Jika ditinjau dari lendutan yang terjadi pada saat crack pertama, balok yang diberi perkuatan mengalami lendutan yang relatif lebih kecil yaitu 0,61 mm; 0,31 mm dan 0,18 mm daripada balok tanpa perkuatan 1,28 mm; 0,55 mm dan 0,32 mm sehingga balok yang diperkuat dengan sengkang luar dapat dikatakan lebih kaku daripada balok tanpa perkuatan.

This paper presents experimental studies of rectangular concrete beam behaviors under axial load and bending loads and investigating the possibility of producing Lightweight Self-Compacting Concrete (LWSCC) by using the Attapulgite stone with a bulk density of about 776 kg/m3. The experimental work included (5) specimens which included using the silica fume by 10% and 15% as an addition to the mixture M2 and M3 . The shear span to effective depth (a/d) of beams was (2.5, 2.75, and 3.00). The test results showed an improvement in the mechanical properties of specimens containing silica fume by 15%, which was tested at 28 days. The first crack and the ultimate load were decreasing with increasing (a/d) ratios. Experimental results indicate a significant improvement in the properties of concrete and its resistance to shear stresses, as the axial load improves the shear capacity and reduces the shear failure in the (LWSCC).

This study investigates the effect of confining the Strut region of the deep beam by using Struts Reinforcement; which consists of four main bars enclosed by stirrups. Six specimens were tested for investigating the behavior of deep beams including; ultimate load, mid-span deflection, crack pattern, first shear and first flexure cracks, concrete surface strain and mode of failure. The specimens were tested under two symmetrical points load with and of 1 and compressive strength of 38 MPa. The main parameters were: first one the diameter of the main bars of Strut Reinforcement (8, 10, 12 mm) with constant spacing of stirrups equal to 80 while the other parameter was varied spacing of stirrups of strut reinforcement (120, 100, and 80 mm) with constant main bars diameter of 8 mm. The test results showed that the Strut confinement generally increased the ultimate load from 750 kN to 1250 kN and the ductility of the beam, confined shear cracks and strain surface across the strut and shear area and turned failures mode from shear failure to flexure. The increase in the diameter of the main bars enhanced the behavior of the beam more than the stirrups number.

To investigate the influence of shear span ratio for the shear behavior of reinforced concrete beam with HRBF500 high strength rebars as stirrups, an experiment was carried out, which included 8 simply supported beams with HRBF500 rebars as stirrups. Under concentrated loads, the crack, deflection, strain of rebars, bearing capacity and failure mode are observed under different shear span ratios. Some comparisons are made between test results and calculated outcome. It shows that the shear span ratio has very important influent on the shear behavior of reinforced concrete beam with HRBF500 high strength bars as stirrups. Formula in code for design of concrete structures can be used to calculate its shear capacity with enough safety.

Nowadays, retroftting reinforced concrete with FRP fbers is regarded as a globally signifcant issue. In reinforced concrete beam, the shear failure mode is more dangerous than fexural failure mode. Because this thin and sudden mode occurs without any pre-warning, diagonal shear cracks are wider than fexural cracks and preventing their expansion is rather diffcult. In the present study, the concrete beams are retroftted with GFRP fbers through a common method. Then, the beams have four- point bending test until the premature failure occurs. This phenomenon is relatively prevented through retroftting along the shear. The failure of beams are examined here.Journal of the Institute of Engineering, 2015, 11(1): 12-19

Deteriorated concrete cover, e.g., spalling or delamination, especially when it occurs at the web of a reinforced concrete (RC) beam within the shear span, can reduce the shear capacity of the beam. Patching of this deteriorated area may be the best option to recover the shear capacity of the beam affected. For this purpose, unsaturated polyester resin mortar (UPR mortar) has been formulated. This research aims to investigate the efficacy of UPR mortar in limiting the shear cracking and so restoring the shear capacity of the deteriorated RC beam. The investigation is carried out by an experimental and numerical study. Two types of beams with a size of 150 × 250 × 1000 mm were prepared. The first type of beams was assigned as a normal beam. The other was a beam with a cut off in the non-stirrup shear span, which was eventually patched with UPR mortar. Two reinforcement ratios were assigned for each type of beams. The results show that UPR mortar is effective to hamper the propagation of diagonal cracks leading to increase the shear failure load by 15–20% compared to the reference (normal) beam. The increase of shear strength with the use of UPR mortar is consistently confirmed at various reinforcement ratios.

In order to study the influence of the axial compression ratio and steel ratio on the shear-carrying capacity of steel-truss-reinforced beam-column joints, five shear failure interior joint specimens were designed. The effect of different coaxial pressure ratios (0.1, 0.2, and 0.3) and steel contents on the strain, ultimate bearing capacity, seismic performance, and failure pattern of cross-inclined ventral and chord bars in the joint core area was investigated. The experimental results show that the load-displacement hysteretic curves of all test specimens exhibit a bond-slip phenomenon. With the increase of the axial compression ratio, the ultimate bearing capacity of the joint core increases by 3.4% and 5.9%, respectively. While the ductility decreases by 10.3% and 13.1%, and the energy consumption capacity decreases by 3.2% and 5.8%, respectively. The shear capacity and ductility of the member with cross diagonal ventral steel angle in the joint core are increased by 12.9% and 13.4%, respectively. The shear capacity and ductility of the joint can be significantly improved by increasing the amount of steel in the core area. The expression of shear capacity suitable for this type of joint is obtained by fitting analysis, which can be used as a reference for engineering design.

An experimental investigation was conducted to study the effect of composite carbon fabric shear reinforcement on the ultimate strength and behaviour of reinforced concrete beam. Shear deficient specimens were strengthened by using side-bonded and wrapped CFRP straps. Eight beams were fabricated and tested under the cyclic loads. The main objective of the study is to obtain ductile flexural behaviour from the shear deficient RC beams. To verify the reliability of shear design equations and guidelines, experimental results were compared with all common guidelines and published design equations.

Degradation of reinforced concrete (RC) element could lead to a reduction of its strength and serviceability. The degradation may be identified in the form of spalling of concrete cover. For the case of RC beam, spalling of concrete cover could occur at the web of the shear span due to corrosion of the web reinfocements. The shear strength of the damaged-RC beam possibly will become less conservative compared to the corresponding flexural strength with a risk of brittle failure. Patch repair could be a choice to recover the size and strength of the damaged-RC beam. This research investigates the shear failure of patched RC beam without web reinforcements with a particular interest to compare the shear failure behaviour of patched RC beam and normal RC beam. The patch repair material used in this research was unsaturated polyester resin (UPR) mortar. The results indicate that the initial diagonal cracks leading to shear failure of patched RC beam occur at a lower level of loading. However, the patched RC beam could carry a greater load before the diagonal crack propagates in length and width causing the beam to fail in shear.

Software simulation enables design engineers to have a better picture of possible structural failure behaviour and determine the accuracy of a design before the actual structural component is fabricated. Finite element analysis is used to simulate the behaviour of the reinforced concrete beam under the flexural test. During the flexural test, results are recorded for both simulation and experimental tests. By comparing the results, beam displacement, crack patterns, and failure modes can be studied with better accuracy. The accuracy percentage for yield load and ultimate load between the two tests results were 94.12 % and 95.79 %, respectively, whereas the accuracy percentage for elastic gradient before the yielding stage was 81.08 %. The behaviour between simulation and laboratory models described is based on crack pattern and failure mode. The progression of von Mises (VM) stresses highlighted the critical areas of the reinforced concrete beam and correlation between the experimental specimen, in terms of flexural cracks, shear cracks, yielding of tension reinforcement, and the crushing of concrete due to compressive stress. This paper concludes that simulation can achieve a significant accuracy in terms of loads and failure behaviour compared to the experimental model.
