This analysis involves the experimental study of eight reinforced concrete beams of T section ( cm bw=15cm e h=40cm), with cm 300cm of length, bisupported and with the same longitudinal reinforcement, strengthened for shear force with carbon fiber composites (CFC). They were divided in two series of four beams, with a reference beam for each series, where the internal transversal reinforcement ratio was greater for Serie I than Serie II. For the three strengthened beams of each series the number of layers of the reinforcement in CFC made by U stirrup varied, which were anchored longitudinally by stirrups of this composite. The CFC glue was done after the first diagonal cracks in the shear region. The results of the tests showed that the strengthened beams had a minimum increase of shear force of 36% in relation to the respective reference beams and the rupture of them occurred due to diagonal tension, with the CFC debonding in the region of its anchorage. The cinematic (upper-bound solution) and ACI-440 (2001) model presented results close to the experimental results for the shear strength. The experimental result of the shear force parcel resisted by the CFC presented superior results to the calculated by diverse theoretical models, and the most consistent ones were FIB-Bulletin 14 (2001) and Khalifa and Nanni (2002) models. The analyses of diverse parameters showed that the strengthening effectiveness Vf decreases when the rigidity E(f)P(f) of CFC increases, therefore there is a lesser increase of total strength to the shear force.
