A SHEAR DESIGN PROCEDURE FOR R/C MEMBERS WITH DUCTILITY
Toshikatsu Ichinose · Journal of Structural and Construction Engineering (Transactions of AIJ) · 1990
A design procedure is presented to prevent the shear failure of reinforced concrete members after flexural yielding. The procedure is based on truss-strut model. The inclination of truss action is assumed to increase in hinging regions considering reduced aggregate interlocking. Effective compressive strength of concrete is assumed to degrade in hinging regions considering crossed shear cracks. The procedure is confirmed by existing experimental data.
