Five simply supported reinforced concrete beams with shear reinforcement are tested, three of which are made with NSC （normal-strength concrete） and the other two with HSC （high-strength concrete）. The span of the simply supported beams is 0.9 m with 100 mm wide by 200 mm deep cross section. All five beams are tested under four-point bending. Careful repair process is adopted and proved successful. The aim is to restore or increase shear strength of these beams and to monitor their post-repair load-deflection behavior. The effect of concrete compressive strength on the behavior and strength of beams before and after repair is also investigated. Shear cracks patterns and their evolution are observed and discussed.展开更多
