The aim of this research was to determine the minimal requirements for shear reinforcement for reactive powder concrete (RPC) rectangular cross-sectional beams with a compressive strength of 157 MPa and a steel fiber volume content of 2.0% that remained constant for all the tested beams. Additionally, the recommendations of KCI-2012 and AFGC-2013 for the design of RPC beams as well as the shear design requirements of ACI 314-2014 when applied to RPC beams were studied. Utilizing a three-dimensional finite element program, a computational model was designed for forecasting the deformations and shear strength of the examined RPC beams. Both the shear-span-to-depth relationship (a/d) and the minimal reinforcement web ratio, represented by the distance between stirrups and the diameter of the stirrup bars, are the key study parameters in this regard. According to this study’s experimental findings, increasing the given reinforcement of the web ratio has little influence on both the ultimate shear strength as well as the diagonal cracking strength of the beams. Additionally, the findings demonstrated that the ACI 318-2014 maximum stirrup spacing requirement of 0.5 d can safely be extended to 0.75 d for beams that are relatively short. Compared to what ACI 318-2014 mandates, the suggestions of AFGC-2013 and KCI-2012 are more cautious and safe. According to the AFGC-2013 criteria, the mean proportion of Vfb to projected Vu,AFGC is roughly 58.3%, whereas the mean proportion of vs. and Vc is just 41.7%. The deformation response and ultimate shear strength of the examined RPC beams were well predicted by the designed model using finite elements when metal fibers were taken into account. |
