Abstract
An enhanced truss model is presented in the present study. The model is theoretically based on the well-known relationship between shear and the rate of change of bending moment in a reinforced concrete beam subjected to combined shear and moment loads. The new model shows that a new perspective on the shear resistance can be gained by considering the variation of the internal arm length along the span. And the shear resistance mechanism is resolved into three independent base components; arch action, truss action and membrane action. The compatibility of deformation associated to the two actions is indirectly taken into account by employing an empirical factor. Then the base equation of V=dM/dx is numerically formulated so as to clarify the physical basis of the behavior related to beams under combined action of flexure and shear.
