Oh that's cool !!

Although, theoritically they should

as they run across the crack !??!!

the sliding of the shear craxk

It essentially means, neglecting

the longitudinal rebar effect,
which indicates that they don't
contribute that much :D (15%) only.

qcu/2
 This sudden softening always happens when at cracking
weather for Longitudinal steel in Reinforced Concrete,
or P.S cables in PSC. At the instant of handig to force
slip from the intact concrete to the steel.

i.e the theortical tube

centerline where
the shear flow runs,
is essentially the
centerline of the stirrup.
 Haha Same statement
in Mashhoour's book

i.e. One you can either use an elastic or ultimate value

the compounding by these formulae is valid in both cases.

even if not reinforced

with closed stirrups

i.e. it applies to any type of T-Beam

weather it was a (Slab-beam) config.
or (Precast T-Section), in both cases
the considered Flange width is limited
by the code.
