In recent years, textile reinforcement has been widely researched and used in reinforced concrete beams, slabs, and thin plates. However, the design for bending is completely different from that of the shear case. The use of textile carbon yarns in place of or in addition to traditional steel stirrups to reinforce the shear has been investigated. Eight beams with dimensions of 200 mm × 300 mm × 1500 mm were used in this investigation. These beams were tested in shear under four load points. Two specimens were used with and without steel stirrups as reference specimens, while the other six beams used textile carbon yarns instead of steel stirrups. The variables of this study were the length of overlap, which was 30%, 60%, and 100%, the spacing was 90 mm and 130 mm, while inclination was 45° and 90°, and bonding with or without steel fibers. The results showed that using 100% overlap length, 90 mm spacing, a 45° angle, and adding steel fibers increased the shear capacity, increased the deflection, and made the cracking behavior better. |
