Shear

The parameters in the Shear group control the calculation of shear reinforcement.

1D structures - beams

Shear coefficients

Max. value fy and tyt for shear

Art. 11.5.2

Default value = 60000

2D structures

Control of the shear proof method after art. 11.3

Use the simplified methodafter 11.3.1

The simplified method after §11.3.1, including the condition Vc = 0 (§11.3.1.3) for overtensioned cross-sections is applied.

 

Use the more detailed method after 11.3.2

This is the default option for shells and plates.

Special minimum shear reinforcement control after 11.5.6.1

No special shear reinforcement is provided (art. 11.5.6.1)

This is the default option.

No minimum shear reinforcement is provided

(standard provision §11.5.6.1)

 

Special minimum shear reinforcement control after art. 11.5.6.1

Minimum shear reinforcement is provided

(§11.5.6.3, provision in the sense of R11.5.6.1)

Shear effect control

No effect of shear force on the longitudinal reinforcement

This is the default option.

The effect of shear force on the longitudinal reinforcement is not considered (ACI 318M-05 standard)

 

Effect of shear force upon longitudinal reinforcement is considered after EC2, art. 4.3.2.4.4 (5)

The effect of shear force on the longitudinal reinforcement is considered according to EC2, §4.3.2.4.4(5)

This represents a nonstandard procedure!
