Shear strength of reinforced and prestressed concrete deep beams by Lu, Hai Yun.

“…The studies in this thesis mainly focus on the general behaviour, analysis and design in the shear strength of large reinforced and post-tensioned concrete deep beams. The influence of main steel ratio p, concrete strength fc', shear span-to-overall-height ratio a/h (or shear span-to-effective-depth ratio a/d), overall height h and prestress force on deep beams are investigated.…”
