The concrete beam design flow charts address the following subjects:
• Beam Section Shear Strength: two separate charts outline in det ails
Shear check. One is a basic shear check, and two is detailed shear check,
in order to handle repetitive beam shear reinforcement selection. See
shear check introduction page for further details.

The approach of the beam shear check chart is to define the nominal shear strength of the
concrete, then compare it with the ultimate shear force at the critical section, and subsequent
sections. Shear reinforcement calculation is performed, where applicable.
The shear charts are presented into two parts. One is the Shear Basic Chart, which is outlining the
main procedures of the shear design in accordance with ACI applicable code provisions. The second,
Shear Detailed Chart, is outlining the steps required for repetitive shear check. The
detailed charts provide as much variables and or scenarios as needed to facilitate the creation of
automated shear check applications.
The concept in selecting stirrups is based on an input of the bar diameter ( db) of the stirrups to be
used, usually #3, 4, or 5, as well as the number of legs and thus finding the spacing (s) required.
The shear chart intentionally did not include the following ACI provisions due to p ractical and
economical justifications:
• Detailed method of ACI §11.3.2.1 for calculating nominal shear strength of concrete, vc . The
reason is the value Vud/Mu is not constant along the beam span. Although the stirrups
spacing resulting from the detailed method may be 1.5 larger than that of the direct method
using ACI 11.3.1.1 at the critical section only, the use of the detailed method is not practically
justified beyond this critical section, i.e. beyond distance d from the face of support.
• Shear reinforcement as inclined stirrups per §11.5.6.3, and bent up bars per §11.5.6.4
and §11.5.6.5. Only vertical stirrups per §11.5.6. 2 are used, since other types of shear
reinforcement are not economically justified.
