Influence of Compressive Strength of Self-Compacting Concrete on Shear Behavior of Prestressed RC Beams

Article Preview

Abstract:

The shear behavior of prestressed self-compacting concrete (SCC) beams has been investigated in this study. The effect of compressive strength of SCC on the shear strength has been taken into account in test program. Based on the experimental data, the failure mechanism of the prestressed SCC beams was discussed and the shear transfer mechanism of the RC beam after the flexure-shear cracking was also analyzed.
