COMPARATIVE STUDY OF BENT-UP BARS WITH OTHER FORMS OF SECONDARY REINFORCEMENT IN BEAMS
ALTHOUGH CONSIDERABLE RESEARCH HAS BEEN DEVOTED TO THE EFFECTS OF STIRRUPS AS SHEAR REINFORCEMENT, BENT-UP BARS, WHICH HAVE BEEN USED FOR MANY YEARS AND ARE INCLUDED IN THE RECOMMENDATION OF ALL CODES OF PRACTICE, HAVE RECEIVED LITTLE SYSTEMATIC STUDY. THIS PAPER PRESENTS A DIRECT COMPARISON OF THREE FORMS OF WEB REINFORCEMENT, VERTICAL AND INCLINED STIRRUPS, AND BENT-UP BARS, AND IT IS FOUND THAT THE WEB REINFORCEMENT RATIO PROVIDES A SATISFACTORY BASIS FOR THE EVALUATION OF THE RELATIVE EFFICIENCY OF THESE TYPES. /ACIJP/
