- Additional information
- Unlike existing empirical models for concrete shear strength, this paper, an international cooperation between Bradford and Kyonggi university funded by the National Research Foundation of South Korea, developed a rational approach based on concrete plasticity for assessing the reduced aggregate interlock along crack interfaces of light weight aggregate concrete (LWC). It also assessed the modification factor of ACI 318 shear design provision for concrete against the most comprehensive database complied to date for concrete with various weight aggregates and proposed a simplified model for ACI-318 and EC2 to improve the safety of shear capacity of LWC structures.
