Shear Force on Section for Vertical Wall Face Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Shear Force on Section = Shear on Section 1+(Bending Moment/Horizontal Distance)*tan(Angle between Earth and Wall)
F_shear = V₁+(M_b/d)*tan(θ)
This formula uses 1 Functions, 5 Variables

Functions Used

tan - The tangent of an angle is a trigonometric ratio of the length of the side opposite an angle to the length of the side adjacent to an angle in a right triangle., tan(Angle)

Variables Used

Shear Force on Section - (Measured in Newton) - Shear Force on Section is the force acting in a direction that's parallel to (over the top of) a surface or cross section of a body.
Shear on Section 1 - (Measured in Newton) - Shear on Section 1 is the shear force acting on the horizontal section of a counterfort.
Bending Moment - (Measured in Newton Meter) - The Bending Moment is the reaction induced in a structural element when an external force or moment is applied to the element, causing the element to bend.
Horizontal Distance - (Measured in Meter) - Horizontal Distance is the distance from face of wall to main steel.
Angle between Earth and Wall - (Measured in Radian) - Angle between Earth and Wall is the angle made by the earth face of counterfort makes with vertical.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Shear on Section 1: 500 Newton --> 500 Newton No Conversion Required
Bending Moment: 53 Newton Meter --> 53 Newton Meter No Conversion Required
Horizontal Distance: 500.2 Meter --> 500.2 Meter No Conversion Required
Angle between Earth and Wall: 180 Degree --> 3.1415926535892 Radian (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

F_shear = V₁+(M_b/d)*tan(θ) --> 500+(53/500.2)*tan(3.1415926535892)

Evaluating ... ...

F_shear = 500

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

500 Newton --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

500 Newton <-- Shear Force on Section

Shear Force on Section for Vertical Wall Face

Go Shear Force on Section = Shear on Section 1+(Bending Moment/Horizontal Distance)*tan(Angle between Earth and Wall)

Thickness of Counterfort Shear Unit Stress on Horizontal Section

Go Thickness of Counterfort = Normal Shear Unit Stress/(Counterfort Shear Unit Stress*Horizontal Distance)

Counterfort Shear Unit Stress on Horizontal Section

Go Counterfort Shear Unit Stress = Normal Shear Unit Stress/(Thickness of Counterfort*Horizontal Distance)

Horizontal Distance from Face of Wall to Main Steel

Go Horizontal Distance = Normal Shear Unit Stress/(Thickness of Counterfort*Counterfort Shear Unit Stress)

Normal Shear Unit Stress on Horizontal Section

Go Normal Shear Unit Stress = (Counterfort Shear Unit Stress*Thickness of Counterfort*Horizontal Distance)
