In a companion paper, a rational mechanical model to predict the entire behavior of point-loaded RC slender beams (a/d > 2.5) without shear reinforcement was developed. This paper presents the test results of 9 slender shear beams and compares them with analytical results performed by the proposed model. They are grouped by two parameters, which are shear span ratio and concrete strength. Three kinds of concrete strength the 26.5, 39.2, and 58.8 MPa were included as a major experimental parameter together with different shear span ratios ranging from 3 to 6 depending on the test series. Tests were set up as a traditional 3 point bending test. Various measurements were taken to monitor abrupt shear failure. Test results were not only compared with analytical results from the proposed model, but also other formulas, to consider the various aspects of shear failure such as kinematical conditions or shear capacity. Finally, a review of the proposed model is presented with respect to the shear transfer mechanisms and the effect of test parameters. Results show that several assumptions and proposals adopted in the proposed model are rational and reasonable.

Four reinforced concrete beams without shear reinforcement were tested statically up to failure to investigate the arch action in reinforced concrete beams. Major variable was the shear span to depth ratio varied from 2 to 4. Due to the reduction of internal moment arm length by the development of arch action, the measured steel tension was higher than the calculated steel tension.

The paper presents quasi-static numerical simulations of the behaviour of short reinforced concrete beams without shear reinforcement under mixed shear-tension failure using the FEM and four various constitutive continuum models for concrete. First, an isotropic elasto-plastic model with a Drucker-Prager criterion defined in compression and with a Rankine criterion defined in tension was used. Next, an anisotropic smeared crack and isotropic damage model were applied. Finally, an elasto-plastic-damage model was used. To ensure mesh-independent FE results, to describe strain localization in concrete and to capture a deterministic size effect, all models were enhanced in a softening regime by a characteristic length of micro-structure by means of a non-local theory. Bond-slip between concrete and reinforcement was considered. The numerical results were directly compared with the corresponding laboratory tests performed by Walraven and Lehwalter (1994). The advantages and disadvantages of enhanced models to model the reinforced concrete behaviour were outlined.

Experimental study was conducted to investigate the flexural-shear behavior of hooked steel fiber reinforced high strength concrete (SFRHC) beams. Twenty beams with shear span-depth ratio of 1.45 were tested, of which variables were the contents of steel fiber with aspect ratio of 60, tension reinforcement ratio and concrete compressive of 60MPa and 80MPa. Test results has shown that shear failure of the beams were changed into flexural-shear failure or flexural failure according to increasing steel fiber content, that SFRHC with slump of 15cm over and fiber volume ratio of 1.5% was possible in practice, and that proper volume ratio of steel fiber was 1.5%.

This paper presents a model for evaluating the contribution by arch action and frame action to shear resistance in shear-critical reinforced concrete beams without stirrup. The rotating angle softened truss model is employed to calculate the shear deformation of the web and the relative axial displacement of the compression and tension chord by the shear flow are also calculated. From this shear compatibility condition in a beam, the shear contribution by the arch action is numerically decoupled. The transverse strain obtained from the proposed model is selected for shear failure criterion. Using the failure criterion, shear strength of RC slender beams without stirrup is predicted.

In this paper, the three dimensional Parallel Realistic Failure Process Analysis ($RFPA^{3D}$-Parallel) code based on micromechanical model is employed to investigate the bonding behavior in FRP sheet bonded to concrete in single shear test. In the model, the heterogeneity of brittle disordered material at a meso-scale was taken into consideration in order to realistically demonstrate the mechanical characteristics of FRP-to-concrete. Modified Mohr-coulomb strength criterion with tension cut-off, where a stressed element can damage in shear or in tension, was adopted and a stiffness degradation approach was used to simulate the initiation, propagation and growth of microcracks in the model. In addition, a Master-Slave parallel operation control technique was adopted to implement the parallel computation of a large numerical model. Parallel computational results of debonding of FRP-concrete visually reproduce the spatial and temporal debonding failure progression of microcracks in FRP sheet bonded to concrete, which agrees well with the existing testing results in laboratory. The numerical approach in this study provides a useful tool for enhancing our understanding of cracking and debonding failure process and mechanism of FRP-concrete and our ability to predict mechanical performance and reliability of these FRP sheet bonded to concrete structures.

This paper investigates the effect of the width of failure and tension crack (TC) on the stability of cohesive-frictional soil slopes in three dimensions. Working analytically, the slip surface and the tension crack are considered to have spheroid and cylindrical shape respectively, although the case of tension crack having planar, vertical surface is also discussed; the latter was found to return higher safety factor values. Because at the initiation of a purely rotational slide along a spheroid surface no shear forces develop inside the failure mass, the rigid body concept is conveniently used; in this respect, the validity of the rigid body concept is discussed, whilst it is supported by comparison examples. Stability tables are given for fully drained and fully saturated slopes without TC, with non-filled TC as well as with fully-filled TC. Among the main findings is that, the width of failure corresponding to the minimum safety factor value is not always infinite, but it is affected by the triggering factor for failure (e.g., water acting as pore pressures and/or as hydrostatic force in the TC). More specifically, it was found that, when a slope is near its limit equilibrium and under the influence of a triggering factor, the minimum safety factor value corresponds to a near spherical failure mechanism, even if the triggering factor (e.g., pore-water pressures) acts uniformly along the third dimension. Moreover, it was found that, the effect of tension crack is much greater when the stability of slopes is studied in three dimensions; indeed, safety factor values comparable to the 2D case are obtained.

본 연구는 조적조로 구성된 치장벽체의 전단거동에 관한 연구이다. 치장조적벽체의 내진보강상 세를 소개하였으며, 본 연구에서 개발한 내진상세를 적용하여 전단거동을 평가하였다. 실험체는 비보 강조적벽(URM) 1개 보강조적벽(RM) 3개로 구성하였으며, 준정적 실험을 수행하였다. 비보강 조적벽은 형상비와 축방향 압축력에 따라 다양한 거동 및 파괴가 일어난다. 그러나 본 연구는 조적구조와는 다른 치장조적조를 대상으로 하였으므로, 전단강도의 주요변수로 작용하는 축방향 압축력은 변수에서 제외 되었다. 실험변수로는 벽체의 보강유무와 형상비로 정하였다. 실험결과 실험체의 거동은 강체회전(Rocking)모드가 지배적으로 나타났으나, 최종파괴는 여러 파괴모드가 복합적으로 나타났다. FEMA273 에서는 면내조적벽의 전단강도식을 제시한다. 강도식은 조적벽의 거동모드에 따라 4가지로 분류되며, 그 거동모드는 강체회전(Rocking), 단부압괴(Toe-Crushing), 수평줄눈미끄러짐(Bed-Joint-Sliding), 사인장(Diagonal-Tension)파괴로 나타내고 있다. FEMA 273에 의해 전단강도를 평가한 결과 치장조적벽의 거동모드는 어느정도 예측 할 수 있었지만, 전단강도는 매우 다르게 나타났다.

Conventional plate I-girders are sensitive to local buckling of the web when they are subjected mainly to shear action because the slenderness of the web in out-of-plane direction is much bigger. The local buckling of the web can also cause the distorsion of the plate flange under compression as a thin-walled plate has very low torsional stiffness due to its open section. A new I-girder consisted of corrugated web, a concrete-filled rectangular tubular flange under compression and a plate flange under tension is presented to improve its resistance to local buckling of the web and distorsion of the flat plate flange under compression. Experimental tests on a conventional plate I-girder and a new presented I-girder are conducted to study the failure process and the failure mechanisms of the two specimens. Strain developments at some critical positions, load-lateral displacement curves, and load-deflection curves of the two specimens have all be measured and analyzed. Based on these results, the failure mechanisms of the two kinds of I-girders are discussed.
