Predicting the Response of Shear-critical Reinforced Concrete Beams using Response-2000 and SNI 2847:2013
Abstract: This study
investigates the accuracy of Response-2000 in predicting the response of
shear-critical reinforced concrete beams. The experimental data selected was
that obtained by Vecchio and Shim in 2004 on twelve reinforced concrete beams
which sought to replicate beams originally tested by Bresler and Scordelis in
the early 1960s. This study also aims to compare the results obtained to the
predictions of SNI 2847:2013. It is demonstrated that Response-2000 is capable
of providing accurate predictions of load-deflection responses up to the peak
load, but underestimates the ductility of beams that exhibit a mixed
flexure-shear failure mode. It is also shown that both methods provide
conservative predictions of the shear strength of beams with no shear
reinforcement, with the software providing more consistent and reliable predictions
of shear strength of beams containing shear reinforcement.
