Abstract:The shear strength of fiber reinforced elements is usually predicted through analytical models calibrated from experimental tests. Few results obtained from these tests consider the mechanical characterization of the material, allowing to evaluate the different performances of fiber reinforced concrete. This work evaluates the possibility of replacing the minimum shear reinforcement of reinforced concrete beams with steel fibers. For this, comparations were made evaluating the shear strength of 240 experimenta… Show more
