This paper presents the evaluation method for shear capacity of tapered RC beams without stirrups. The nonlinear FEM analysis was found to be appropriate to simulate the shear behavior of tapered RC beams without stirrups. The simple relationship between the slope of taper and the inclination of the compressive strut was also proposed through FEM simulations. By determining the location of the critical section, the shear capacity of tapered RC beams without stirrups can be calculated. The calculated value showed good correspondence with the experimental results. |
