Figure 15: Analysis of shear beam (CF).

Figure 16: Comparison of experimental and predicted results.

Fig. 16 and the Tab. 2 show the evolution of the ultimate values of shear force calculated by this model and those observed experimentally. It can be seen that the numerical model approaches the real behavior both before and after the cracking of the concrete, as well as the ultimate value of the shear force of all the beams studied. However, in order to better appreciate the differences between the results obtained, it would be more judicious to proceed to further analysis by using a reliability method thus making it possible to better estimate the differences that may exist between the calculation and the experiment.
