Results are presented on the shear strength of four simple beams, without web reinforcement. All beams had the same over all dimensions. The only difference was that two beams were common monolithic beams while the other two had cast in an artificial diagonal crack at each end. The artificial cracks were located in different positions and with different inclinations. The beams were tested with concentrated loads at third-points.
