Experimental Study of Steel Reinforced Concrete Beams with Web Openings
Abstract eng: The openings in the webs of beams in building are necessary for the passage of utility ducts. This study aims to investigate the behavior of steel reinforced concrete (SRC) beams with an opening, including the effects of various opening shapes and different values of moment to shear ratio on the strength. Thirteen full-scale SRC beams were designed to have different opening shapes and tested at different moment to shear ratios. Test results indicate specimens with high moment to shear ratio demonstrated ductile behavior due to the confinement attributed to the stirrup and structural steel. Specimens with low moment to shear ratio failed owing to the shear cracking. An interaction between bending and shear was examined for tested SRC beams.
