= 451.44 kN
Vsx < Vsx permissible Hence OK
Check for Minimum Shear Reinforcement
0.5 x φVcx = 55.93 kN
Vux > 0.5 x φVcx Hence , Minimum Shear reinforcement required
Av/s minimum = 333.33 sqmm/m
Av/s shear = 333.33 sqmm/m
Av/s required = max (Av/s minimum , Av/s shear)
= 333.33 sqmm/m
Diameter of link = 10 mm
Numbers of legs provided = 4
Spacing of Link Provided = 200 mm
Av/s provided = 1570.8 sqmm/m
Av/s required < Av/s provided Hence OK

Design Of Links
Links in the zone where special confining links are not required
Normal Links
Diameter of link = 10 mm
> Max. longitudinal bar dia / 4
= 4 mm
Criterion for spacing of normal links
Min. Longitudinal Bar dia X 16 = 256 mm
48 x diameter of links = 480 mm
Provided spacing = 200 mm

Criterion for spacing of Ductile links:


Min. Longitudinal Bar dia x 6 = 96 mm
B/4 = 100 mm
So = 150 mm
Spacing = 150 mm
Provided Spacing = 75 mm
