Revaluation of Shear Strength for Steel Reinforced Concrete Beam


Shinya TOTSUKA, Tadatomo WATANABE


In general, the method of especially calculating strength in the steel frame part is not clarified enough though shear strength of Steel Reinforced Concrete Beam is calculated by the accumulation strength method. In the main part of this paper, experiment was done on the beam material by which the iron frame shape etc. were assumed to be parameters and the application of the shear strength calculation technique was examined. As a result, based on the strength calculation technique in the past the evaluation on the safety side and the shear strength calculation technique with comparatively good accuracy are proposed in the range of current experiments to compensate for the underestimating tendency.
