The bent-up bars have not been used as shear reinforcement in beams since the past 40 years or so. In all cases of design and construction nowadays, shear forces are resisted by vertical links only. Some complications in installing the multiple set of bent-up bars, the less opportunity to have sufficient number of bent-up bars due to small number of flexural reinforcement provided at the mid-span of the beams and also the large anchorage required for the horizontal portion of the bars beyond the upper end of the bend could be the reasons behind this. This paper presents the results of tests on five rectangular reinforced concrete beams in which the effectiveness of welded inclined bars (WIB) as shear reinforcement was studied. Two of the beams were controlled specimens, with no shear reinforcement in one, and full design vertical links in another. The other three beams were provided with three different quantities of WIB, measured in terms of area to distance ratio, Asw / S as shear reinforcement in the shear spans. All beams were tested to failure under two point loads with a shear span to effective depth ratio of 2.34, which would ensure that the failure was due to shear unless their shear capacities were larger than the flexural capacity. The performances of the beams were measured in terms of deflection, crack formation, strains in WIB and on the concrete surfaces in the shear region, ultimate loads and failure modes. The results show that WIB alone is capable of carrying the whole shear forces in the beam, and larger shear capacities are achieved with a larger quantity of WIB, and a higher grade of the bars used. The beam with WIB requires 22% less in the quantity of Asw / S compared to that with vertical links to achieve the same shear resistance. These suggest that WIB can be used as an effective system of shear reinforcement in beams.

Expansive Agent

This paper aims to study the flexural behavior of CFRP enclosed reinforced concrete beams with different shear reinforcement. Four-point bending tests were carried out on six concrete beams with different contents of steel fibers (0.5%, 1.0%, and 1.5%) as well as six beams with different stirrup spacing (100 mm, 150 mm, and 300 mm) without fiber. The effect of steel fiber (SF) content as well as stirrup spacing on flexural properties of concrete beams were investigated. Meanwhile, the effect of expansive agent on the properties of specimens was also studied. The data collected in this test include cracking load, ultimate load, mid-span deflection, strain of CFRP (Carbon fiber reinforced polymer), strain of longitudinal steel reinforcement as well as the failure modes. Test results show that both cracking loads and ultimate loads of the SF reinforced beam specimens are generally higher than those of the corresponding stirrup reinforced beam specimens. Experimental results also indicate that the addition of SF can improve the ductility and cracking resistance of specimens. This therefore demonstrates that it is feasible to replace stirrup reinforcement with SF as shear reinforcement. In addition, it exhibits a good agreement between experimental results and analytical predictions in cracking loads and ultimate loads.

The purpose of this paper is to investigate the flexural behavior of over-reinforced concrete beam enhancement by bolted-compression steel plate (BCSP) with normal reinforced concrete beams under laboratory experimental condition. Three beams developed with steel plates were tested until they failed in compression compared with one beam without a steel plate. The thicknesses of the steel plates used were 6 mm, 10 mm, and 15 mm. The beams were simply supported and loaded monotonically with two-point loads. Load-deflection behaviors of the beams were observed, analyzed, and evaluated in terms of spall-off concrete loading, peak loading, displacement at mid-span, flexural stiffness (service and post-peak), and energy dissipation. The outcome of the experiment shows that the use of a steel plate can improve the failure modes of the beams and also increases the peak load and flexural stiffness. The steel development beams dissipated much higher energies with an increase in plate thicknesses than the conventional beam.
