SHEAR STRENGTH OF PRESTRESSED CONCRETE BEAMS WITHOUT WEB REINFORCEMENT

THE RESULTS ARE PRESENTED OF EXPERIMENTAL AND ANALYTICAL STUDIES ON ULTIMATE SHEAR STRENGTH OF PRESTRESSED CONCRETE BEAMS WITHOUT WEB REINFORCEMENT AND TESTED UNDER EITHER TWO-POINT OR UNIFORMLY DISTRIBUTED LOADING. FACTORS GOVERNING THE TWO PRINCIPAL CATEGORIES OF SHEAR FAILURE, NAMELY SHEAR-COMPRESSION TYPE AND WEB-CRUSHING TYPE, HAVE BEEN EXAMINED. FOR SHEAR-COMPRESSION FAILURE LOAD, A SEMI-EMPIRICAL CHARACTERISTIC EQUATION HAS BEEN DEVELOPED FROM THE ANALYSIS OF TEST RESULTS ON THE BASIS OF A MODIFIED LINEAR STRAIN DIAGRAM. /AUTHOR/
