The box beam in the figure is reinforced with #4 U-stirrups in each web. f c′ = 3.5 ksi, andfy = 60 ksi.(a) What is the design shear capacity of the cross section?Hint: Find concrete and stirrup strengths separately, and then find the total capacity.(b) If the total applied factored shear force at the section is 220 kip, please comment onthe adequacy of this shear design.Hint: Compare the total capacity from (b) with the shear force.2. In the figure, all loads are factored, and the uniform load includes self-weight. Use #3stirrups. fc′ = 4 ksi, and fy = 75 ksi.(a) What stirrup spacing is required at section A?(b) How will this spacing change at section B?(c) Indicate the region of the beam where stirrups are not required.
