Question

A beam is to be designed for loads causing a maximum factored shear of 60.0 kips, using concrete with f 'c = 5000 psi. Proceeding on the basis that the concrete dimensions will be determined by diagonal tension, select the appropriate width and effective depth ( a ) for a beam in which no web reinforcement is to be used, ( b ) for a beam in which only the minimum web reinforcement is provided, as given by Eq. (5.13), and ( c ) for a beam in which web reinforcement provides shear strength V s = 2 V c . Follow the ACI Code requirements, and let d = 2 b in each case. Calculations may be based on the more approximate value of V c given by Eq. (5.12 d ).

Explanation / Answer

Here i am providing link for ACI code book..Must be folloe the code as per code guide lines.

In that we have calculations for the above problem based on structural steel reinforcement.
