Concrete beams with openings analysis and design pdf

This paper uses both the experimental and finite element FE method to analyze the shear behavior of RC beams with opening. The beams were divided into three series according to the shear span-to-depth ratios. Three reinforced concrete beams without openings and one beam with openings were tested experimentally under two-point loading. Results showed that the openings located in a high shear region the line connecting the load and support points led to the early collapse of the beam. In addition, by comparing the experimental results with those of the non-linear FE analysis, it was concluded that both results were in accordance.
