Design of stirrups

Characterisics Strength Of stirrups (σy) = 500 KN


Breath of the beam (d) = 355 mm
Design Shear (Vus) = 178 KN

Adopt, 8mm- 2legged vertical stirrups:


Asv = 100.48 mm2

Spacing of shear reinforcement (x) = (0.87*σy*Asv*d)/Vus


= 87.17204 mm
not allowed

Again, asuuming spacing (x) = 127 mm


Asv = 146.3882 mm2
Diameter of stirrups= 10 mm
Provided area = 157 mm2

Therefore, provide stirrups of 12mm dia bars At 127mm c/c spacing.
