ABSTRACT

The relations between the axial tensile force and the shear strength of the high strength R/C member were discussed from experimental data. In the experiment, 18 specimens were provided which have three types compressive strength of concrete and have high strength of rebar. Test results showed that the members subjected to axial tension decrease the load carrying capacity. Furthermore, it became clear that in the case of the more high strength concrete beam subjected to axial tension the shear strength of the beamdecline rapidly. On the other hand, even if the strength of concrete became high, it was observed that the shear strength of the member does not go up.

Keywords: High strength concrete, High strength rebar, Shear strength, Axial tensile force.
