Flow Chart to represent Beam Design Sheet

Input Data
B,D,fck,fy,L,Shear at Supports and Mid, Moments at Supports and Mid (Top and Bottom),Axial Force (F),

Sizing check as per IS 13920:2016, B/D>0.3, L/D>4, Bmin =200mm

Calculation of d, Xumax, Mumax, Astmin, Astmax

Ast1 =Astlim= Mulim/(0.87fy(d-0.42Xumax) Ast1 is calucalated from Mu/bd2 and from


Ast2= (Mu-Mulim)/(0.87fy(d-d')) standard Pt formula
AT= F/0.87fy (To be provided at side face of beam) No Yes
Mu<Mulim AT= F/0.87fy (To be provided at side face of beam)
Compuste fsc from ϵsc Asc= 0.87fyAst2/fsc
ϵsc= 0.0035(Xumax-d')/Xumax Ast=Ast1
Asc= 0.87fyAst2/fsc

Moment of Resistance (Supports)


From Ast and Asc provided, Hogging and Sagging Moment of Resistance is calculated.
For Hogging M.R, Top Ast acts as Tension R/F and bottom Ast acts as Compression R/F and For Sagging M.R, vice versa.
T=0.87fyAst
C=0.36fckbXu+fscAsc
As now, Compression R/F are provided much more than calculated, fsc correspond to Xumax wont be correct. As due to
much more compression R/F provided, Xu would be different.
To calculate fsc, Xu is required and to calculate Xu, fsc is required. Xu and fsc are inter-related. They are determined by
Trial and error procedure. Iteration is carried out till fsc and Xu value is such that T=C.
Assume Xu--->Єc=0.0035(Xu-d')/Xu--->Determine fsc from strain--->Correct value of Xu and fsc when C=T--->Determine
Mr
Moment of Resistance, Mr= 0.36fckbXu(d-0.42Xu)+fscAsc(d-d')

Shear Reinforcement Design


Equivalent UDL intensity is manually entered in the sheet considering all slab loads and wall loads.
Vu(D+L) correspond to 1.2(DL+LL) is calculated (Simply Supported case)
(Due to formation of Plastic Hinges)
Left Support (A): Right Support (B):
Vu1= Vu(D+L)-1.4(MrSA+MrHB)/L Vu1= Vu(D+L)+1.4(MrSA+MrHB)/L
Vu2= Vu(D+L)+1.4(MrHA+MrSB)/L Vu2= Vu(D+L)-1.4(MrHA+MrSB)/L
s represents sagging and H represents hogging
The Stirrups are designed for maximum shear force (Vus) neglecting concrete capacity
Spacing,s = 0.87fyAsvd/Vus, 0.87fyAsvd/0.4b, 0.75d, 300mm (IS 456:2000),
= d/2, 8dlong_bar(min) (IS 13920:2016) provided upto 2d from face of support (Minimum)
Stirrup spacing at remaining span is based on spacing required as per IS 456 or d/4 as per IS 13920 (Minimum)
