Abstract

This paper dscribes an experimental investigation into the cause of flexural-shear failure in RC beams. The experimental variables are bottom flange width and tension bar location. Then these test results were compared and analyzed to deduce the major cause of critical-shear cracking. As a result, it was found that the propagation of the critical shear crack depended exclusively on the intensity of horizontal cracking.
