  ABSTRACT: In the last two decades, the study of reinforced concrete (RC) structures elements such as bridge deck slabs, bridge girders, or offshore installations, whicharesubjected to cyclic action typically induced by seismic motions has received the attention of many researchers.Furthermore, the past two decades have witnessed rapid growth in the use of fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) confining jackets for the strengthening/retrofit of reinforced concrete (RC) columns and beams. Moreover, several theoretical and empirical modelshave been proposed for evaluating theshear strength of beams, columns and beam-to-column joints. In thispaper, an overview of the models currently available in the scientific literature forevaluating theshear capacity ofbeams, columns andexterior beam-to-column jointsis reported.Further, important practical issues which contribute inshear strengthening of structures with different element types especially RC beams with different strengthening techniques, such as steel plate and FRP laminate are discussed.Finally,directions for future research based on the existing gaps of the existing works are presented.
