DETAILING OF STIRRUP REINFORCEMENT

This paper addresses the detailing of stirrup reinforcement for shear. First, the function of the stirrups in members under high shear streses is explained by means of truss models. Next, the results of an experimental program evaluating stirrup details used in current practice are presented. Based on this experimental program, recommendations for detailing of stirrups in memmbers under high shear stresses are given.
