1. Design Parameters

b= 200 mm fcu = 25 N/mm2 T= 20.5 kNm

h= 600 mm fyv = 250 N/mm2 v= 0.28 N/mm2
cover = 30 mm fy = 460 N/mm2 vc = 0.36 N/mm2
link = 10 mm As req, Bending = 157 mm2
Asv / Sv= 0.28 mm2/m

2. Torsional Shear Stress BS8100: PART2 - Table 2.3

Concrete Grade
hmin= 200 mm 25 30 40
hmax= 600 mm vt, min 0.33 0.37 0.40
vtu 4.00 4.38 5.00

vt = 2T
h_min^2 (h_max - h_min/3)
= 1.9219 N/mm2 vt > vt, min ?
[ Torsional Reinforcement Required ! ]
vt, min = 0.33 N/mm2

vtu = 4.00 N/mm2 Chk ( v + vt ) < vtu ?

v + vt = 2.2019 N/mm2 [ OK ! ]

x1 = 130 mm Chk vt < ( vtu . y1 ) / 550 ? If y1 < 550

y1 = 530 mm [ OK ! ]

Limit vt = 3.85 N/mm2

3. Additional Shear Reinforcement

Asv / Sv= 1.7100 mm2 / m

(torsion)
Asv / Sv= 1.9900 mm2 / m
Asv / Sv= 0.280 mm2 / m (total)
(shear)

Spacing, Sv: < 200 mm Limit = 130 mm

< 130 mm
