Aggregate interlock in lightweight concrete continuous deep beams [PDF]
Engineering Structures, 2011 There are very few, if any, available experimental investigations on aggregate interlock capacity along diagonal cracks in lightweight concrete deep beams. As a result, the shear design provisions including the modification factor of ACI 318-08 and EC 2 for lightweight concrete continuous deep beams are generally developed and validated using normal ...

Influence of aggregate size on shear mechanism of reinforced concrete beam subjected to impact load
SN Applied Sciences, 2022 Article highlights Aggregate interlock contributes to shear resistance under impact load conditions. Cracked sections with larger aggregate sizes transfer larger shear force along the crack surface in comparison with the ones with smaller aggregates. The

The Effect of Shear Crack Geometry on Aggregate Interlock Action in Reinforced Concrete [PDF]
, 2021 A shear crack in an RC beam undergoes a load sharing stage where aggregate interlock is dominant along particular segments of the crack path. However, one of the challenges is that this estimation of the aggregate interlock contribution is highly ...

Performance of Ore Sand as Aggregate for Interlocking Blocks
Applied Sciences, 2023 The search for alternatives that can replace conventional materials extracted from nature is crucial for environmental sustainability. This is especially the case for construction and geotechnical engineering, as this sector is a major consumer of the planet’s natural resources.
