0.0 * (0.0 - 0.1) / 0.0 = 0.0 Tn/m

Arm =
= (4.7 * 0.00 / 2 + (4.7 - 4.7) * 0.00 / 3) / 0.0 = 0.00 m
Max. moment Mu = 0.0 * 0.00 = 0.0 Tn-m/m
Shear strength

ACI Eq. (11-3)

Vn = 0.75 * 0.53 * (210) / 10 * 0.1 = 0.1 Tn/m

Use #4 @ 30.5 cm

As = 4.23 cm/m

> Vu = 0.0 Tn/m

OK

4.23 / (100 * 0.1) = 0.4231

Bending strength
Mn = 0.90 * 0.1 * 210.0 * 8.461 * (1 - 0.59 * 8.461) = 0.1 Tn-m/m

ACI 10.2.7
> Mu = 0.0 Tn-m/m OK
