Abstract

After thorough review of the literature on structural elements with shear failure, and after conducting several experimental programs whose values were compared later with the theoretical values obtained with the three selected Design Codes to calculate shear in elements reinforced with fibers, it was found that it would be useful and also necessary to build a large database of elements failing in shear in order to have a large number of cases that allow to better evaluate resisting phenomena and the validity of building Codes. For this reason, this chapter shows the analysis of that database.
