“…Shear is profoundly considered as one of the most significant challenges in the design of reinforced concrete members. When subjected to moment and shear, premature shear failure may occur in structural members containing little or no shear reinforcement such as in thick sections and wide beams [1][2][3] or in ordinary beams weakened by tensile forces [4]. Failure can also occur in heavily reinforced elements under unforeseen loading conditions such as earthquake [5][6].…”

A low-cost digital image correlation system is used to visualize the formation and propagation of concrete cracking in a reinforced concrete beam. The system employed comprises an ordinary digital camera, a remote image recording controller (a smartphone) and a freely-available, open-source image correlation software package Ncorr. In this paper, the application of this system is demonstrated to obtain a comprehensive time-lapse of longitudinal strain fields developing before and after the onset of shear cracking, thus allowing one to appreciate the mechanisms of shear failure in the beam fully. It is shown that the longitudinal strain fields obtained from the DIC system are in a good agreement with hand-drawn crack maps and that obtained from nonlinear finite element analysis.
