This paper investigates the scale effect in concrete members subjected to shear loading. Some concrete structural type (RC and SRC) of different sized test specimens were prepared and tested. Moreover, a shear loading test on some geometrically similar specimens, having diameters from d=300 to 1100 mm, was conducted in the present study to investigate the scale effect in large-scaled concrete structural members. The results clearly indicate that the size effect for large scale members is clearly observed. The validity of theku value in Hirosawa’s equation ,which is the most popular shear design equation in Japan, is verified through the comparison with the test results on 37 RC and SRC specimens failing in shear, 14 specimens were collected from this paper and 23 specimens from the works published recently. From the inverse analysis ofku, it is important of the review ofku for the seismic design of large scale structures. |
