1.051 Structural Engineering Design Problem Set 3: Shear in Beams

This document contains instructions for a structural engineering design problem set involving the analysis and design of shear reinforcement in beams. It includes: 1) A simply supported beam subjected to uniform loads, where students are asked to calculate shear and design shear reinforcement using approximate and accurate methods. 2) The same beam but with a changed support configuration to decrease shear and moment, with students redesigning shear reinforcement. 3) Solving a problem from the textbook regarding bond and anchorage.

Shear in beams
1. A simply supported beam has a clear span ln = 22 ft and is subjected to an external uniform service dead load wD = 1200 lb/ft (including own weight) and live load wL = 900 lb/ft . Determine the maximum factored vertical shear Vu at the critical section. Given: bw d h As fc fy = 12 in. = 17 in. = 20 in. = 6.0 in2 = 4000 psi = 60,000 psi

22 ft

Design the size and spacing of the shear reinforcement. (a) Using the approximate value of Vc given by Eq. 4.12b in the textbook (b) Using the more accurate value of Vc given by Eq. 4.12a in the textbook Assume no torsion exists. 2. For the beam in question 1, assume that the following support configuration is adopted in order to decrease the shear and moment in the section,

14 ft Redesign the shear reinforcement using both approximate and accurate values of Vc and discuss the effects of changing support configuration for both procedures. Assume As=As.
