... C-1 Appendix C: Shear Database This appendix presents the shear database (SDB)

... C-2 beams had stirrups while 1059 of them did not. The vast majority of the tests (1268 of 1444, or about 90 %)
From page 83...
... C-3 C.2 Effect of Parameters The database was used to investigate the influence of several major parameters on shear strength. In this section, the shear strength, )

... C-4 concrete strength. In most codes of practice, shear strength is proportional to the concrete strength to an exponent between 0.25 and 0.5.
From page 85...
... C-5 ratio can not be clearly defined for members subjected to uniformly distributed load, and thus it is more appropriate to use the moment to shear ratio in design code expressions than an a/d ratio. C.2.1.4 Longitudinal Reinforcement Ratio Fig.
From page 86...
... C-6 C.2.2.2 Effective Depth Fig. C-16 shows shear strengths plotted versus the effective depths.
From page 87...
... C-7 have shear strengths smaller than that value. The shear strength limit (without Vp)
From page 88...
... C-8 From Fig. C-24 it can be seen that the shear span to depth ratio (moment-shear ratio)

... C-9 C.2.4.2 Effective Depth Fig. C-28 shows the shear strengths of PC members with shear reinforcement plotted versus their effective depths.
