    Shear Behaviour of Beam

    Diagonal cracks near supports are a common mode of shear failure in reinforced concrete beams. Shear forces at beam supports can cause sudden shear failure. Shear in beams is resisted by the concrete area in compression, aggregate interlocking, dowel action of longitudinal bars, and shear reinforcement. Shear reinforcement must be provided if actual shear stress exceeds design shear strength. Minimum shear reinforcement is also required even if shear stress is less than design strength to prevent brittle failure and ensure ductility. Shear reinforcement includes stirrups perpendicular or inclined to the beam axis, or bent-up bars with stirrups, and is designed to carry shear forces in excess of the concrete's shear capacity.

    SHEAR BEHAVIOUR OF BEAM

    Priyana Rajbhandari
    073/MSST/113
    Diagonal cracks are the main mode of shear failure in reinforced concrete beams
    located near the supports

    There are high vertical forces at the support of beam that can cause the end of
    beam to suddenly fail in shear. When the shear transfer capacity decreases, static
    equilibrium cannot be maintained and relative displacement takes place.
    Shear force in RCC beam is resisted by following forces:
     Area of concrete in compression
     Aggregate interlocking
     Dowel action of longitudinal tensile reinforcement
     Shear reinforcement

    Whenever the value of actual shear stress exceeds the design shear strength of the
    concrete based on percentage of longitudinal tensile reinforcement (as per IS
    code), shear reinforcement must be provided.
    Section must be redesigned if the shear stress exceeds maximum shear strength of
    concrete
    Design overview of shear reinforcement:

    Nominal shear stress,τv =𝑉𝑢


    𝑏𝑑
    (In beams of uniform depth)

    =𝑉𝑢±𝑀𝑢(𝑡𝑎𝑛β)/𝑑
    𝑏𝑑
    (In beams of varying depth)
    Where,
    Vu = shear force due to design loads
    b = breadth of rectangular beams
    d = effective depth
    Mu= bending moment at the section
    β = angle between the top and the bottom edges.
    Minimum shear reinforcement has to be provided even if τv is less than τc (design shear
    strength of concrete). The amount of minimum shear reinforcement in the form of stirrups
    shall be provided such that:

    𝐴𝑆𝑣 0.4
    ≥
    𝑏𝑆𝑣 0.87𝑓𝑦

    where,
    Asv = total cross-sectional area of stirrup legs effective in shear
    sv = stirrup spacing along the length of the member
    b = breadth of the beam
    fy = characteristic strength of the stirrup reinforcement in N/mm2 which shall not be taken
    greater than 415 N/mm2
    The minimum shear reinforcement is provided for the following:

     Any sudden failure of beams is prevented if concrete cover bursts and the bond to the tension
    steel is lost.

     Brittle shear failure is arrested which would have occurred without shear reinforcement.

     Tension failure is prevented which would have occurred due to shrinkage, thermal stresses and
    internal cracking in beams.

     To hold the reinforcement in place when concrete is poured.

     Section becomes effective with the tie effect of the compression steel.
    Types of shear reinforcement:
    • Stirrups perpendicular to beam axis
    • Stirrups inclined (at 45° or more) to the beam axis
    • Bent-up bars along with stirrups

    The purpose of shear reinforcement is to prevent failure in shear, and to increase


    beam ductility and subsequently the likelihood of sudden failure will be reduced.
    The amount of shear reinforcement to be provided is determined to carry a shear force Vus.
    Vus = Vu – τc bd

    The strengths of shear reinforcement Vus for the three types of shear reinforcement are
    (a) Vertical stirrups:
    Vus= (0.87fyAsvd)/sv

    (b) Inclined stirrups or series of bar bent up at different cross-section


    Vus= (0.87fyAsvd)(sin𝛼+cos𝛼)/sv

    (c) Single bar all bent up at same cross-section


    Vus= 0.87fyAsvsin𝛼
