About this document

Shear Cracking in Concrete Bridges by Padasht Muhammad is a document available to read on EtoBox.

The document discusses shear cracking in concrete box-girder bridges, highlighting that traditional design codes do not effectively prevent excessive deflection. It presents findings from tests on thin-webbed I beams to understand shear stiffness degradation and introduces a simple formula for truss strut angle. Additionally, a new stiffness degradation rule for partially cracked beams is proposed, taking into account concrete tension stiffening.
