| description abstract | This paper demonstrates the size effect on the shear strength of reinforced concrete (RC) beams with stirrups and does so in two separate and independent ways: (1) by fracture mechanics, based on finite-element analysis calibrated by a large beam test; and (2) by purely statistical analysis in which a newly assembled database of 234 tests is filtered to eliminate spurious size effects caused by nonuniformity of secondary influencing parameters. Both ways show that stirrups, whether minimum or heavier, cannot suppress the size effect completely, although they can mitigate it significantly for beam depth | |
