An experimental study on the transition of failure between flexural and shear for RC beams

Abstract:

The paper presents a large experimental research program carried out at Delft University of Technology supported by the Dutch Ministry of Infrastructure and the Environment. The research evaluates the shear capacity of RC beam/slab strips at transition of the failure modes between flexural and shear (defined as v bd ). With 106 tests, the values of v bd were obtained for specimens with 7 different configurations covering the variables that are usually found in the existing solid bridge deck slabs. The results are compared with the related expressions suggested by several available design provisions. Suggestions are made to further improve these expressions.
