C Design for Shear

1 Design Shear Force
Unfac Dead load shear = 32.70 Kips
Factored Dead load shear = 39.24 Kips
Factored DL shear at 'd' from face = 34.38 Kips
= Fac DL SF - (d*load/ft)
Unfac LL shear (w/o Imp) at d from face = 41.56 Kips

Factored Live load shear (incl Impact) = 83.12 Kips

Factored Total SF [DL + LL] = 117.50 Kips

2 Related Data
Factored Total SF [DL + LL] = 117.50 Kips
bw = Width of RC girders = 18 in
dr = Depth of girder Rib = 33 in
dc = Cover to center of reinf't = 5 in
dr1 = Eff depth of Rib = 28 in
hg = Overall depth of girder = 42 in
dg = Eff depth of Girder 37 in

3 Design of links
3.1 Check V as per Art 5.2(B)2 - Shear, of Ref [3]
V = Max perm SF in Conc = 300 psi
= 0.075*fc'
Actual stress in Conc section (excl Flange) = 233 psi
a Vc = shear strength provided by concrete = 2*(fc')^0.50*(bw*d)
b Vc shall not exceed 3.5*(fc')
c Quantity (Vu*d)/Mu shall not be greater than 1

3.2 Check V as per Ref [2]

a Vc = shear strength provided by concrete = 2*(fc')^0.50*(bw*d)
vc = Shear stress in concrete = 126 psi
b Vc shall not exceed 3.5*(fc')
c Quantity (Vu*d)/Mu shall not be greater than 1
Mu is the factored BM occuring simultaneously with Vu at
the section being considered. These are simply supported
girders, where Mu is theoretically zero at support. Hence
this provision does not really apply.
Corollary for requirement 'b'
V(max) = Max SF allowed on Sec = 294.85 Kips
3.5*[(fc')^0.50](bw*dg)
Comment = Okay
Corollary for requirement 'c'
Check on requirement C
(Vu*d)/Mu = 0.221 Okay < 1
Section qualifies check 'C'

Vs = SF taken by Reinf't = 33.26 Kips

Mu (Live Load) = Ww(S/4) = 30.938 Kip-ft
-------------------

As(min) = (0.25/100)*(bd) = 0.440 in2
