Abstract

This study aims to investigate the two-way shear strength of concrete slabs with FRP reinforcements. Twenty-one strength models were briefly outlined and compared. In addition, information on a total of 248 concrete slabs with FRP reinforcements were collected from 50 different research studies. Moreover, behavior trends and correlations between their strength and various parameters were identified and discussed. Strength models were compared to each other with respect to the experimentally measured strength, which were conducted by comparing overall performance versus selected basic variables. Areas of future research were identified. Concluding remarks were outlined and discussed, which could help further the development of future design codes. The ACI is the least consistent model because it does not include the effects of size, dowel action, and depth-to-control perimeter ratio. While the EE-b is the most consistent model with respect to the size effect, concrete compressive strength, depth to control perimeter ratio, and the shear span-to-depth ratio. This is because of it using experimentally observed behavior as well as being based on mechanical bases.
