Shear Damage Behavior of Reinforced Concrete Beams under Repetitive Fatigue Loadings

반복하중을 받는 철근콘크리트보의 전단피로손상거동

This study was performed to investigate the fatigue behaviour and fatigue damage process of RC structures under repeated load. Especially, the behavior of RC beams subjected to flexure-shear force has been focused. The test results show that the deflections of beam and the strains of longitudinal steels and stirrups under cyclic loads increase with constant rate, and these increases depend on diagonal crack openings and strain increases. The present study provides useful data for the analysis of damage accumulation of reinforced concrete beams under repeated loadings.
