The use of shear reinforcement can improve shear strength and ductility in reinforced concrete elements. However, depending on the type of reinforcement and the type of construction and solicitation thereof, there may be conflict between the longitudinal and transverse bars. To solve this problem, some researchers have used unconnected shear reinforcements, which are positioned between the longitudinal bars. In addition to avoiding conflict with longitudinal reinforcement, the use of this type of reinforcement can still increase the productivity at the job site, since this type of reinforcement can be prefabricated. However, the use of unconnected shear reinforcement is still limited by the lack of design recommendations supporting their use, as well as there are few experimental studies on the subject. Therefore, this work presents a type of unconnected shear reinforcement, tested in an experimental program and compared with other types of reinforcement. In total, the experimental program involved the testing of 9 reinforced concrete wide beams, where the main variables were the type and rate of reinforcement. In addition to the tests on the beams, tests were carried out on reduced specimens by the push-off test. As results, graphs of displacements, deformations in the flexural and shear reinforcement and in the concrete, cracking maps, surfaces and rupture mode are presented, as well as the last loads observed in the tests with the theoretical loads estimated by different normative recommendations. As the main conclusions, it was observed that the unconnected stirrups can have the same performance in comparison with shear reinforcements with connected anchorage, as well the use of a complementary reinforcement to the W stirrup can improve the shear resistance of a reinforced concrete beam and avoid delamination.

This paper presents the results of seven experimental tests in reinforced concrete wide beams, aiming to investigate their performance when subjected to shear, using prefabricated truss stirrups as shear reinforcement, as well as a supplementary reinforcement to control cracks by delamination. The main analysed variables were: position of the supplementary reinforcement, inclination of the shear reinforcement, and spacing between stirrups. Results showed that strength increments of up to 142% were obtained using the prefabricated truss stirrups. Furthermore, the experimental results were compared with the theoretical shear strength estimates of the tested beams, following the recommendations of NBR 6118 (2014), Eurocode 2 (2004), and ACI 318 (2014), in order to evaluate the safety level of these codes when designing concrete elements subjected to shear with the reinforcement used in this paper.
