This paper investigates the shear strength of Hybrid Fiber Reinforced Concrete (HFRC) moderate deepbeams without stirrups having span to depth ratio 2.0, 2.4, 3.0, 4.0. The 8 numbers of beams were tested. 4 numbers ofbeams were tested to failure under two point symmetrical loading and 4 numbers of beams were tested to failure undercentral point loading. A complete shear deformational behaviour along with load-deflection response, crack patternsand modes of failure is studied experimentally. Shear strength is evaluated using empirical equations proposed here inthis work for estimation of ultimate shear strength of moderate deep beams without stirrups. Experimental results ofultimate shear strength are compared with theoretical results calculated from proposed equation proposed. Thecomparison shows that the equation proposed here provides the most accurate estimates of shear strength. In addition toconcrete strength, the influence of other variation such as fiber factor, span to depth ratio, longitudinal steel ratio andsize effect is considered in the proposed equation.
