“…In fact, δu,SFRC/δu,SC increased when fibers were added to the concrete. Fiber capacity, when dosed adequately, modified the failure mode from shear to flexure, corroborating conclusions by You et al (2010), Minelli et al (2014) and Tahenni et al (2016). Therefore, V-δ showed that SFRC beams (V0.5, V0.8 and V1.0) had a predominantly ductile behavior, where the control beam, V0, revealed a fragile behavior.…”
