Shear transfer mechanism in reinforced engineered cementitious composite (ECC) beams: Quantification of Vs and Vc

To enhance the structural and seismic resistance, as well as durability of concrete structures, an ultra ductile fiber reinforced cementitious composites called Engineered Cementitious Composite (ECC), also known as Strain Hardening Cementitious Composite (SHCC), was developed. ECC has a similar compressive and tensile strength to conventional...
