How to Calculate Nominal Shear Stress?
Nominal Shear Stress calculator uses Nominal shear stress=(Total design shear force/(0.8*Capacity reduction factor*Overall thickness of wall*Horizontal length of wall)) to calculate the Nominal shear stress, The Nominal Shear Stress formula is defined by the help of total design force , capacity reduction factor , overall thickness of wall and horizontal length of wall. Nominal shear stress and is denoted by vu symbol.
How to calculate Nominal Shear Stress using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Nominal Shear Stress, enter Total design shear force (Vu), Capacity reduction factor (φ), Overall thickness of wall (h) and Horizontal length of wall (lw) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Nominal Shear Stress calculation can be explained with given input values -> 1.22549 = (5/(0.8*0.85*2*3)).
