Total Design Shear Force given Nominal Shear Stress Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Total Shear = Nominal Shear Stress*Capacity Reduction Factor*Overall Thickness of Wall*Design Horizontal Length
V = v_u*φ*h*d
This formula uses 5 Variables

Variables Used

Total Shear - (Measured in Newton) - Total Shear is the total shear force acting on a beam.
Nominal Shear Stress - (Measured in Pascal) - Nominal Shear Stress is calculated using the basic principles of mechanics and material properties of the concrete. It does not take into account any additional reinforcing forces.
Capacity Reduction Factor - The Capacity Reduction Factor is a safety factor to account for uncertainties in material strength.
Overall Thickness of Wall - (Measured in Meter) - Overall Thickness of Wall is the wall thickness in millimeters.
Design Horizontal Length - (Measured in Meter) - Design Horizontal Length of wall is 0.8 times the horizontal length of the wall denoted by 'd'.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Nominal Shear Stress: 1176 Newton per Square Meter --> 1176 Pascal (Check conversion here)
Capacity Reduction Factor: 0.85 --> No Conversion Required
Overall Thickness of Wall: 200 Millimeter --> 0.2 Meter (Check conversion here)
Design Horizontal Length: 2500 Millimeter --> 2.5 Meter (Check conversion here)

Shear carried by Concrete

Go Shear carried by Concrete = 3.3*sqrt(Specified 28-Day Compressive Strength of Concrete)*Overall Thickness of Wall*Design Horizontal Length-((Design Axial Load*Design Horizontal Length)/(4*Horizontal Length of Wall))

Concrete Strength given Shear Force

Go Specified 28-Day Compressive Strength of Concrete = ((1/(3.3*Design Horizontal Length*Overall Thickness of Wall))*(Shear carried by Concrete+((Design Axial Load*Design Horizontal Length)/(4*Horizontal Length of Wall))))^2

Maximum Shear Strength

Go Shear Strength = 10*Overall Thickness of Wall*0.8*Horizontal Length of Wall*sqrt(Specified 28-Day Compressive Strength of Concrete)

Nominal Shear Stress

Go Nominal Shear Stress = (Total Shear/(Capacity Reduction Factor*Overall Thickness of Wall*Design Horizontal Length))

Wall Overall Thickness given Nominal Shear Stress

Go Overall Thickness of Wall = Total Shear/(Capacity Reduction Factor*Nominal Shear Stress*Design Horizontal Length)

Wall Horizontal Length given Nominal Shear Stress

Go Design Horizontal Length = Total Shear/(Overall Thickness of Wall*Capacity Reduction Factor*Nominal Shear Stress)

Total Design Shear Force given Nominal Shear Stress

Go Total Shear = Nominal Shear Stress*Capacity Reduction Factor*Overall Thickness of Wall*Design Horizontal Length

Minimum Horizontal Reinforcement

Go Horizontal Reinforcement = 0.0025+0.5*(2.5-(Total Height of Wall/Horizontal Length of Wall))

Total Design Shear Force given Nominal Shear Stress Formula

Total Shear = Nominal Shear Stress*Capacity Reduction Factor*Overall Thickness of Wall*Design Horizontal Length
V = v_u*φ*h*d

What is Design Shear Strength and Nominal Shear Stress?

The strength of the material considered under the shear failure, when a structure will fail is known as the design shear strength.
Nominal shear stress is the shear force generated on the structure due to the force imposed on a given cross-sectional area. The force may be either vertical or horizontal.

What is Shear Strength?

In engineering, shear strength is the strength of a material or component against the type of yield or structural failure when the material or component fails in shear. A shear load is a force that tends to produce a sliding failure on a material along a plane that is parallel to the direction of the force.
