DIAGONAL CRACKING IN PRESTRESSED CONCRETE BEAMS

THE RESULTS OF EXPERIMENTAL AND ANALYTICAL STUDIES ON SHEAR STRENGTH OF PRESTRESSED CONCRETE BEAMS WITHOUT WEB REINFORCEMENT AND TESTED UNDER EITHER TWO-POINT OR UNIFORM LOADING ARE PRESENTED. A SEMIEMPIRICAL CHARACTERISTIC EQUATION IS DEVELOPED FOR THE FLEXURE-SHEAR CRACKING LOAD. FORMULATION OF THE WEB-SHEAR CRACKING LOAD IS BASED ON A FAILURE CRITERION UNDER COMBINED STRESSES. /LCPC/A/RRL/
