The Behavior of RC Beams Strengthened with Steel Fiber Concrete Layer by ANSYS Simulation

Figure 14

When the stirrup spacings are modified, cracks begin to appear in the beams, and the beams suffer damage: (a) cracks begin to appear in the beam (Pcrack = 8 kN), ϕ6a100; (b) damage to the beam begins to appear (Pmax = 125 kN), ϕ6a100.
