Shear strength of slender SCC beams - possible differences from VC beams

ABSTRACT In comparison with vibrated concrete (VC) of the same strength class, self-compacting concrete (SCC) typically has a lower coarse aggregate content and, eventually, a smaller maximum aggregate size. This may reduce the aggregate interlock between the fracture surfaces in SCC. Since the aggr...
