A novel approach for evaluating the concrete shear strength in reinforced concrete beams

The paper presents a rational procedure for evaluating the concrete shear strength in reinforced concrete beams. Previous research has shown that the shear in concrete is resisted by various mechanisms and the resistance degrades with the increase of flexural deformation. The paper introduces a nove...
