(Think a deck of playing cards.) Under the action of a transverse load we see below how the beam deflects in the absence of shear stiffness. Focus, in particular, on the deflection at the right end of ...
a comprehensive analysis of factors influencing the shear behavior of reinforced concrete deep beams has been conducted. This research highlights the importance of various parameters, such as web ...
The transverse load P will produce a shear force V in the positive y direction on a mathematical cut through the beam at point “a”. This shear force is directly responsible for the shear stress τ on ...
