Abstract This study evaluates the shear performance of reinforced concrete members with web opening reinforcement. A total of 4 reinforced concrete members with or without openings were cast then tested. The main variables investigated were with or without of web openings and with or without of web opening reinforcement, respectively. The proposed web opening reinforcement was a rectangle and rhombus-shaped spiral considering of construct ability. Test result showed that the proposed web reinforcement had improved shear capacity and ductility of the specimens. It was found that the web opening reinforcement proposed in this study had a positive effect on the shear strength and crack control of RC beams with web openings. In addition, it was confirmed that the analytical results by the current design codes underestimates the test results of the specimens with the proposed web opening reinforcement.
