Shear capacity of self compacting concrete deep beam under constrained axial loads

Abstract EN

The main objective of this paper is to study the shear capacity of SCC reinforced concrete deep beams subjected to axial load.

Seven simply supported deep beams casted by using SCC mix with steel fibers and tested.

All these beams have dimensions of 1300mm length, 350mm high, and 150mm width and have been subjected to constant axial force with value (100) kN and then subjected to two point loads.

The variables of this work are (shear span/depth (a/d), vertical shear reinforcement (ρv), and horizontal shear reinforcement (ρh) to study their effects on first crack and ultimate loads, and mid span The main objective of this paper is to study the shear capacity of SCC reinforced concrete deep beams subjected to axial load.
