Shear transfer model for ultra‐high‐performance concrete incorporating fiber bridging mechanism
Abstract Ultra‐high‐performance concrete (UHPC) exhibits exceptional mechanical properties, including high shear strength, partly attributed to the fiber bridging mechanism. However, existing shear transfer models for normal‐strength concrete have not considered the significant contribution of fibers.
