Shear Strengthening of RC Deep Beams with Circular Openings by Means FRP Composites

The high depth created favorable space for placing the openings which are to provide some capabilities such as mechanical and electrical installations, but these openings reduced load bearing capacity of the beams. One solution to the mentioned shortcoming is to use FRP-Composite sheets; the effect...
