Studying the effect of cross section shape on shear resistance of high strength concrete T beams, and developing a relationship to compute it´s shear


Abstract in English

Using high strength concrete made a big step in designing and constructing reinforced concrete structures. In this research, shear resistance of high strength concrete beams with average resistance of (65Mpa) and without shear reinforcement was calculated by making Experimental tests, also we studied the effect of cross section shape on shear resistance, and measured the deflection in the middle of the beams then we compared these results with the mathematical results and with results from other researchers, finally we developed a relationship to determine shear capacity in high strength concrete T beams.
