< d, OK
FACTORED SHEAR AT THIS LOCATION
Vu = PT/#piles(per row) =

300.00 KN

BEAM SHEAR CAPACITY:

Vc = (fc)bd/6 =
702.93 KN
Vu < Vc, Thickness Ok

Vc = 2 (fc)bd =
157.46 kips
Vu < Vc, Thickness Ok

PUNCHING SHEAR CAPACITY:

bo = 2 (col.size +d/2) =
807.50 mm.
Vc = (fc)bod / 3 =
536.08 KN
Vu < Vc, Thickness Ok

FACTORED MOMENT:
