Sažetak
In the current European Code EN 1992-1-1 a truss model with variable inclination angle of concrete compressive struts with a quite wide range of inclination angle, from 21,8° to 45°, is intended for use for shear design of reinforced concrete beams. However, some researches and recommendations indicate special attention when choosing the lower bound of inclination angle of the concrete compressive struts, due to the reduced compressive strength of cracked concrete. This work reviews theoretical background and shear design methods of reinforced concrete beams. Relation of the shear resistance to crushing of the compressive struts as a function of their inclination angle has been investigated through a parametric study, where three different approaches have been used in order to limit stresses in the compressive struts. Based on the comparison of results from the analysis a recommendation for shear resistance calculation of reinforced concrete beams in dependence on concrete strength in compressive struts of the truss model is given.
