Abstract Estimating the shear strength of Ultra-High-Performance Concrete (UHPC), with high compressive and tensile strengths, is complicated by many variables that affecting its behavior. Residual tensile stress (RTS) plays an important role in raising the efficiency of both types of resistance, especially shear strength due to the presence of steel fibers, which makes it difficult to quantify the residual tensile stress due to the different failure patterns of these fibers and the distribution mechanism within the concrete matrix. There is no study to date in assessing residual tensile stress of UHPC structural members of the variable section. Thirteen beams were selected as an experimental program to study six main variables in determining shear strength. Stirrups ratio, flexural reinforcement ratio, the volumetric fraction of steel fibers, geometry changing, existing openings along the longitudinal axis, and shear span to depth ratio. According to on Tests results, RTS is compatible with most of the global specifications.

Ultra High Performance Concrete

This article presents an experimental and theoretical investigation on the shear behavior of fiber-reinforced ultra-high-performance concrete beams reinforced with high-strength steel. The test parameters included the fiber volume fraction, fiber type, and stirrup ratio. The test results indicate that the shear failure in ultra-high-performance concrete beams is not brittle and catastrophic but has ductility characteristics. A moderate quantity of stirrups can significantly improve the shear behavior of ultra-high-performance concrete beams, as reflected in the thorough propagation of cracks in both shear span and pure bending zone. The depth of the compression zone considering concrete tension was derived based on the deformation compatibility and force equilibrium equations for both serviceability limit state and ultimate limit state. The comparison of the proposed method and classical beam theory shows that the concrete tension should not be neglected in the serviceability limit state analysis. After cracking, the concrete tension can be neglected for simplicity when the beam is heavily reinforced and should be considered when the beam is lightly reinforced. Then, a shear strength model was established based on Rankine’s failure criteria, the truss model, and Association Francaise de Génie Civil-Sétra. Finally, the proposed shear strength equation was verified by the test results and compared with other shear strength equations.

In order to study the direct shear properties of ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC) structures, 15 Z-shaped monolithic placement specimens (MPSs) and 12 Z-shaped waterjet treated specimens (WJTSs) were tested to study the shear behavior and failure modes. The effects of steel fiber shape, steel fiber volume fraction and interface treatment on the direct shear properties of UHPC were investigated. The test results demonstrate that the MPSs were reinforced with steel fibers and underwent ductile failure. The ultimate load of the MPS is about 166.9% of the initial cracking load. However, the WJTSs failed in a typical brittle mode. Increasing the fiber volume fraction significantly improves the shear strength, which can reach 24.72 MPa. The steel fiber type has little effect on the shear strength and ductility, while increasing the length of steel fibers improves its ductility and slightly reduces the shear strength. The direct shear strength of the WJTSs made from 16 mm hooked-type steel fibers can reach 9.15 MPa, which is 2.47 times the direct shear strength of the specimens without fibers. Finally, an interaction formula for the shear and compressive strength was proposed on the basis of the experimental results, to predict the shear load-carrying capacity of the cast-in-place UHPC structures.
