While using SFRC only in web increased the ultimate and crack load about (18-23) % and (13-32) % respectively. Presence of HSC only in flange improved ultimate and cracking load about (10-21) % and (3-16) % respectively. On the other hand the result obtained from beams failed in shear showed that presence of SFRC on web led to enhancement the ultimate and cracking load about (2-14) % and (4-15) % respectively. While presence of HSC in web increased the ultimate and cracking load about (14-30) % and (19-28) % respectively. ANSYS finite element models used to simulate tested beams and it was found that the general behavior of FEM showed good agreement.
