Abstract
Strength of inclined sections (Shear strength) of I-shaped beams made of Ultra-High-Performance Concrete
Incoming article date: 27.11.2023Ultra high-performance or ultra high-strength concrete is a new class of cement-based materials with increased strength and durability. The widespread use of this concrete in construction practice requires theoretical and experimental studies of the stress-strain state of structures made from them. The article presents and analyzes the shear strength of I-shaped beams made of ultra-high-performance concrete tested by the authors. In the experiments, we varied the fiber content, the shear span, the shear reinforcement ratio, and the width of the compressed flange.
Keywords: shear strength, shear force, ultra high-performance steel fiber-reinforced concrete, I-shaped beams
