Section 418.6.4.1. Along the remaining length, hoops satisfying Section 418.7.5.2 shall have

heam bars and 150mm. Where concrete cover over transverse reinforcement exceeds
100 mm, additional transverse reinforcement having cover not exceeding 100 mm and
spacing not exceeding 300 mm shall be provided.

DESIGN SHEAR FORCEV. (NSCP2015 SECTION 418.6.5)

418.6.5.1 The design shear force, Ve, shall be calculated from consideration of the forces on
the portion of the beam between faces of the joints. It shall be assumed that moments of
opposite sign corresponding to probable flexural strength, Mpr, act at the joint faces and that
the beam is loaded with the factored tributary gravity load along its span.

418.6.5.2 Transverse reinforcement over the lengths identified in Section 418.6.4.1 shall be
designed to resist shear assuming V, =0 when both (a) and (b) occur:

a. The earthquake-induced shear force calculated in accordance with Section 418.6.5.1

represents at least one-half of the maximum required shear strength within those
lengths;

b. The factored axial compressive force, Pu, including earthquake effects is less than
Agse/20.

ACI 318-14 Commentary Notes:

1. Direction of shear force Ve depends on relative magnitudes of gravity loads and shear generated
by end moments.
2. End moments Mpr based on steel tensile stress of 1.25fy, where fy is specified yield strength.
(Both end moments should be considered in both directions, clockwise and counter-clockwise)
3 End moment Mpr for columns need not be greater than moments generated by the Mpr of the
beams framing into the beam-column joints. V, should not be less than that required by analysis
of the structure.

The probable moment Mpr is determined using the properties of the member at joint faces assuming a
tensile strength in the longitudinal at least 1.25f, and a strength reduction factor 0 =1.0

Mpr=04,(1.25f,)(d-
he design shear force Ve is actually the sum ofthe shear from the plastic end moments Mpr plus the

gravity shear.
