Title
Effectiveness of Steel Fiber as Minimum Shear Reinforcement.
Abstract
The article discusses the author's views on a study pertaining to the effectiveness of steel fiber as minimum shear reinforcement. He cites key concerns including the mechanics of test specimens, the mechanism of stress transfer, and prevalence of cracks in reinforced concrete (RC). The author thinks that the concrete matrix strength did not impact the shear stress-strain response of the RC panels.
