Shear

Select the Shear tab in the Columns dialog (Theoretical (required) reinforcement of bars - RC columns, beams). The following dialog displays.

The following quantities can be selected for a table of results of theoretical (required) reinforcement for structure bars.

• Stirrup spacing - Stirrup spacing along a structure bar length (required and provided)
• Transversal reinforcement - distribution/type - Type and distribution of transversal reinforcement (reinforcement distribution as specified in the code)
• Transverse reinforcement density - The ratio of transversal reinforcement area to the unit of length of an RC element. For example, in the following image, it is the ratio of the total reinforcement area of bars (A) to the unit of beam length (B).
  
• Internal forces
  • Design case - Decisive for the bar design process (reinforcement area).
  • Design force Qy and Qz - Shear force values
  • Design moment Mx - Torsional moment value
  • Combination definition - Definition of the combination decisive for the bar design process (reinforcement area).

The bottom part of the dialog contains the following options.

• All - All options in the tab will be presented.
• None - None of the options in the tab will be presented.
