Shear strength of concrete must be calculated using both the simplified and detailed methods of ACI318 Table 22.5.5.1. -Verity the spacing between main reinforcing bars satisfies AC1318 minimum spacing requirements. -Demonstrate the calculation of the shear forces needed to answer the questions including a fully labelled shear force diagram. The diagram must show the location within the span where 1) no shear force is required (if any), 2) minimum shear force is required (if any). Sketch (manual sketches OK) the beam and show the main reinforcement and distribution of shear reinforcement along the span, including distances where each spacing applies.
