【 摘 要 】

This study proposes a method for predicting the deflection of shear-critical reinforced concrete (RC) beams. Shear deterioration of shear-critical RC beams occurs before flexural yielding. After shear deterioration occurs in the shear-critical RC beams, the deflection caused by shear is greater than the flexural deflection obtained from the elastic bending theory. To reasonably predict the deflection of shear-critical RC beams, it is necessary to evaluate deflections due to shear as well as flexure. In this study, the deflections produced by flexure and shear were calculated and superposed to evaluate the deflection of shear-critical RC beams. The method recommended by ACI 318-19 was employed to calculate the flexural deflection, and a compatibility-aided truss model able to calculate the shear stress and shear deformation at each load stage was used to consider the shear deflection. A comparison of the experimental and analytical results showed that the proposed analytical method can effectively predict the deflection of shear-critical RC beams.
