CHECK FOR ONE WAY SHEAR :

One way shear at critical section L1- L1
Distance of critical sec. from edge of footing =
0.483 m
Shear force Vs =pe max x 0.483 x 1m width of footing =
189.58 KN

Shear stress tv = Vs/bd =
0.247 N/mm
tc =

0.27 N/mm2

tv < tc hence O.K.

One way shear at critical section L2- L2
Distance of critical sec. from edge of footing =
0.483 m
Shear force Vs =pe max x 0.483 x 1m width of footing =
189.58 KN

Shear stress tv = Vs/bd =
0.247 N/mm
tc =

0.27 N/mm2

tv < tc hence O.K.

CHECK FOR TWO WAY SHEAR

Length of critical section = 2 x ( 1367 + 1067) =
Area of the critical section (length of critical sec x eff. d ) =
