Comparison of Fixed and Rotating Crack Models in Shear Design of Slender Concrete Beams
Abstract The shear carrying behavior of slender concrete beams is characterized by the inclination of the compressive struts which is influenced significantly by aggregate interlock in the crack planes. This paper focuses on the comparison of the states of stress and strain in webs of slender beams with vertical shear reinforcement being derived by assuming on the one hand a fixed crack inclination leading to aggregate interlock and on the other hand a variable crack inclination not leading to any stress transfer across the shear cracks.
