Effect of steel fiber ratio on cracking and ultimate torsional moment.
| Beam no. | Vf % | Cracking torque (Tcr) (kN.m) | Increase in Tcr according to H1 (%) | Ultimate torque (Tu) (kN.m) | Increase in Tu according to H1 (%) |
| H1 | 0 | 8.3 | ā | 21.1 | 0 | H2 | 0.5 | 15.77 | 90 | 26.24 | 24.4 | H3 | 0.75 | 17.59 | 112 | 29.51 | 45.6 | H4 | 1 | 19.25 | 132 | 32.09 | 62.7 |
