Current design equations for shear strength of reinforced concrete columns generally overestimate the shear strength contribution by the circular transverse reinforcement. This is due to the simplification of the discrete distribution of the reinforcement to the continuous one and the imprudent application of the classical truss model to the circular section, which is different in shear-resisting mechanism from the rectangular section. This study presents a rational model for the prediction of shear strength contribution by the circular transverse reinforcement considering the starting location of a diagonal crack, the number of transverse reinforcing bars crossing the main crack and the geometrical strength component of the transverse resistance. It was found that, for lower amount transverse reinforcement, the crack starting point and the number of crack crossing bars greatly influence the shear-resisting capacity. Proposed model leads to a reliable design equation which is derived using a linear regression method and is in good agreement with the lower bound of exact strength curve.

To prevent the shear failure that occurs abruptly with no sufficient warning, the minimum amount of shear reinforcement should be provided to reinforced concrete(RC) beams. The minimum amount of shear reinforcement of RC beams is influenced by not only compressive strength of concrete but also shear span-to-depth ratio and ratio of tensile longitudinal reinforcement. In this paper, 14 RC beams were tested in order to observe the influences of shear span-to-depth ratio, ratio of tensile longitudinal reinforcement, and compressive strength of concrete. The test results indicated that the rate of shear strength to the diagonal cracking strength of RC beams with the same amount of shear reinforcement increased as the ratio of tensile longitudinal reinforcement increased, while it decreased as the shear span-to-depth ratio increased. The observed test results were compared with the calculated results by the current ACI 318-02 Building Code and the proposed equation.

This paper predicted the shear deformation, such as strain of shear reinforcement and shear track width, of reinforced concrete (RC) members using Transformation Angle Truss Model (TATM) in order to apply to the shea, analysis of RC buildings. To check the validity of TATM for the shear deformation of RC beams, four RC beams with different shear span-to-depth ratios were cast, instrumented and tested. Observed results were compared with theoretical results by MCFT(Response-2000), RA-STM, FA-STM, and TATM. The proposed model, TATM, better predicted the relationships of the shear stress-strain of shear reinforcement and the shear stress-shear track width than other truss models.

본 논문은 전단철근을 갖지 않는 비교적 짧은 지간의 철근콘크리트 보에서 전단특성을 규명하고 균열전단강도와 극한전단강도를 예측하기 위한 것으로 총30개의 보를 4 series로 나누어 실험을 수행하였다. 실험의 변수는 콘크리트의 강도, 전단지간-유효높이의 비, 인장철근량등이며, 실험과정을 통해 파괴형상, 처짐, 전단강도등을 측정하였다. 실험결과로부터 콘크리트의 강도가 커지고 철근량이 많아질수록, 그리고 전단지간이 짧아질수록 철근콘크리트 보의 균열 및 극한전단강도가 증가됨을 밝혔다. 또한, 실험성과를 회귀분석하여 균열전단강도와 극한전단강도 추정식을 제안하였다. 제안된 추정식에 의한 계산값과 실험성과를 비교 검토하여 그 상관성을 확인하였다.

The requirement of the maximum yield strength of shear reinforcement in the KCI-07 code is quite different to those in the ACI-08 code, EC2-02, CSA-04, and JSCE-04 codes. Eighteen RC beams having high strength shear reinforcement were tested. Test results indicated that even if the yield strength of shear reinforcement in beams was much greater than the maximum yield strength required by the KCI-07 design code, the shear reinforcement of these beams reached their yield strains. Furthermore, the shear strengths of tested beams increased almost linearly with the increase of the amount of shear reinforcement. In addition, larger numbers of diagonal cracks developed in the web of the beam having greater yield strength than the beams having lower yield strength of shear reinforcement. The maximum crack width of the beam having high strength shear reinforcement was approximately the same to the crack with of the beam having normal strength shear reinforcement.

In order to properly evaluate the shear strength of reinforced concrete circular columns due to the transverse shear reinforcement, the average of fractions of forces generated along the circular transverse hoops across the shear failure plane in the loading direction is calculated. For this, the center-to-center diameter of circular transverse hoops. spacing and the crack angle measured to the column longitudinal axis are considered. Using these variables, an equation representing the effective section area of circular transverse shear steel is proposed. The study result shows that the constant parameter. used for the calculation of the effective section area of circular hoops over the last 10 years, should not universally be applied any more. The use of the constant parameter may not seriously do harm to the evaluation of shear strength for circular columns with non-seismically designed transverse hoop reinforcement, since it gives slightly conservative results. However. for well-confined circular columns with close spacing or circular steel jacketing. it gives about 20% overestimation of the shear capacity contributed by the transverse hoop steel.

철근콘크리트 보의 전단강도에 대한 크리효과는 다른 각종 강도에 대한 크기효과에 비해 현저히 나타난다는 것이 많은 실험적 연구로부터 입증되었으며, 이를 배경으로 세계 여러 나라의 전단강도에 대한 설계 기준식들이 전단강도의 크리효과를 반영하고 있는 실정이다. 그러나, 철근콘크리트 구조물이 점점 대형화됨으로써 이와 같은 설계 기준식의 실험적 검토는 사실상 불가능하게 될 것이다. 본 연구에서는 파괴역학에 근거한 비선형 유한요소프로그램을 이용하여 전단보강철근이 없는 대형 철근콘크리트 보의 전단강도에 대한 크기 효과를 재현해 보았다. 또한, 해석 및 실험결과를 이용하여 크기효과가 고려된 몇 가지 대표적인 전단강도식과 비교하였다.

The ACI 318-05 code requires the maximum amount of shear reinforcement in reinforced concrete (RC) beams to prevent possible sudden shear failure due to over reinforcement. The design equations of the maximum amount of shear reinforcement provided by the current four design codes, ACI 318-05, CSA-04, EC2-02, and JCI-99, differ substantially from one another. The ACI 318-05, CSA-04, and EC2-02 codes provide an expression for the maximum amount of shear reinforcement ratio as a function of the concrete compressive strength, but Japanese code does not take into account the influence of the concrete compressive strength. For high strength concrete, the maximum amount of shear reinforcement calculated by the EC2-02 and CSA-04 is much greater than that calculated by the ACI 318-05. This paper presents the effects of shear reinforcement ratio and compressive strength of concrete on the maximum shear reinforcement in reinforced concrete beams. Ten RC beams having various shear reinforcement ratio were tested. Although the test beams were designed to have much more amount of shear reinforcement than that required in the ACI 318-05 code, all beams failed due to web concrete crushing after the stirrups reached the yield strain.

본 논문에서는 강섬유를 혼입한 철근콘크리트 부재의 전단거동에 관한 실험 및 이론적 연구를 수행하였다. 이를 위하여 강섬유가 혼입된 구조부재를 제작하여 실험을 수행하여 강섬유의 전단보강 효과를 규명하였으며, 부재의 연성, 극한전단강도 및 초기균열 전단강도 등을 모두 만족하는 최적의 강섬유 혼입량 및 전단 철근 배근량을 제안하였다. 본 실험으로부터 강섬유의 혼입으로 인하여 연성의 증가뿐 아니라, 초기균열강도는 크게 향상되었으며, 극한전단강도 역시 만족할만큼 증가함을 알수 있었다. 위의 실험결과로부터 강섬유 혼입량(체적비)1%, 시방서에서 규정하는 전단철근 필요량의 75%가 가장 만족스러운 조합임을 알 수 있었다. 본 논문에서는 강섬유가 혼입된 철근 콘크리트부재가 극한 전단강도 예측기법이 제시되었으며, 앞으로 강섬유 콘크리트는 연성을 필요로 한는 내진구조물등에 효율적으로 이용될 것으로 사료된다.

The potential shear strength of reinforced concrete beams decreases after flexural yielding due to the decrease of the effective compressive strength of concrete in plastic hinge zone. A truss model considering shear deterioration in the plastic hinge zone was proposed in order to evaluate the ductile capacity of reinforced concrete beams failing in shear after flexural yielding This model can determine the potential shear strength of the beam by using a truss model. The potential shear strength gradually decreases as the increase of the axial strain of member. When the calculated potential shear strength decreases up to the flexural yielding strength, the corresponding rotation angle is defined as the ductile capacity of the beam. The predicted ductile capacity of reinforced concrete beams is shown to be in a good agreement with experimental results.
