Abstract

The effectiveness of the shear reinforcement of stirrups in deep beams has yet to be satisfactorily verified. Therefore, in the past, their effectiveness was not considered in the design of reinforced concrete (RC) structures when the shear strength of deep beams was calculated. In this research, model load tests of deep beams with stirrups were performed to examine their shear strength. As a result of the experiments, it was verified that the shear span and the shear reinforcement ratio influence the effectiveness of the shear reinforcement. A method of evaluating shear strength of deep beams with stirrups proposed.
