Experimental Study on Variation of Shear Strength of Reinforced Concrete Beams According to Design Parameters

설계변수에 따른 철근콘크리트 보의 전단강도 변화에 대한 실험연구

Experimental study is performed to investigate the variation of shear strength of reinforced concrete beams according to design parameters. The major parameters are loading condition, shear span-to-depth ratio, ratio of tensile longitudinal reinforcement, prestress and boundary rigidity.14 reinforced concrete beams without web reinforcement are tested under monotonic downward loading. The shear strength of the tested specimens were compared with the prediction by design code and Choi's method.
