Abstract

This presents the behavior and ultimate strength of Reinforced concrete deep beams with glass fiber with and without openings in the web area. Eleven concrete deep beams were tested to fail by applying two-point loading under simply supported condition. The percentage of glass fiber was varied from zero to one percentage. The effects of glass fiber percentage in concrete deep beams have calculated by measure the deflection and examine the crack profile of deep beams. In addition to that the investigation accounts the influence of glass fiber in reinforced concrete deep beams with and without openings. The theoretical ultimate load calculated by using Ultimate shear strength equation [1] for reinforced concrete deep beams are compared with experimental values. This experimental program includes that the position of openings, web reinforcement and glass fiber content are the important variables that influence the character and strength of deep beams.
