| Popis: | High-performance concrete (HPC) is one of such new material that has a major improvement over conventional concrete; however, its behavior has to be fully understood. This paper presents experimental and numerical investigations in order to study the shear behavior of high-performance reinforced concrete beams. Four RC-HPC beams were tested experimentally in order to study the effect of the existence of web reinforcement and bar diameter of the web reinforcement as well as the amount of the tensile longitudinal steel bars on the shear behavior. Test results showed higher values of shear strength, stiffness, ductility and controlled the concrete cracking behavior due to the presence of stirrups. The ultimate load for beam having shear reinforcement of 6 mm diameter increased by about 16% compared to that of control beam BI-1 without shear reinforcement, while, that increase reached up to 34% for beam having 8 mm diameter web reinforcement. Besides, the numerical modeling enabled to capture satisfactory the behavior of HPC beam so that it can be used to study the effect of more parameters on the behavior of HPC beams. |
