1 . INPUTS

Bearing strength of concrete at Mpa fc 24

Distance from the face of a colu mm a 200 𝑓_𝑐=0.8∗𝑓_𝑐𝑘
Specified Yeild Strength of reinfo Mpa fy 250 for Fe 250
Factored Load kN 500
Characteristic strength Fck Mpa Fck 30
Size of the column mm 300
Specified Yeild Strength of reinfo Mpa fy 415 for Fe 415
Calculation :-

1. DIMENSIONS OF CORBEL
A. Bearing length mm 300
(Size of Column)
As corbel is an isolated member,
B. Width of the Plate mm 69.44 Increasing the calculated width by
20mm
Adding 20 mm in width of plate mm 89.44
Adopted Width of Plate 90 X 300
Estimation of depth d ( Ref. IS 456 Table 19 )
τc max 3.5 Assume 3 N/mm2
d 555.56 Adopt d= 555.00
D=d+cover+"𝜙  " / mm 605.00
2 Cover = 40 mm
"𝜙 " /
2= 10 mm
Depth at the face =D/2 mm 300
CHECK FOR STRUT ACTION ) ϕ
Now, a/d = 0.36 a/d< 0.6
Acts as a Corbel
2 . DETERMINATION OF LEVER ARM

Equation :- A
(𝑧/𝑑)^2−(𝑟/(𝑟+𝑘))(𝑧/𝑑)+(𝑘/(𝑟+𝑘))
(𝑎/𝑑)^2 = 0
Here, k 0.114 k = 𝐹_𝑣/0.88𝑓_𝑐𝑘 𝑏𝑑

(r/r+k)
(k/r+k)
(k/r+k)*(a/d)^2

mm 0.36
a/d = r =
Substituting values we get
z/d 0.72 z/d Checked
v/Fck = 0.88k 0.1 v/𝑓_𝑐𝑘 = 𝐹_𝑣 (𝑓_𝑐𝑘
For a/d = 0.36 𝑏𝑑)=0.88k
z/d = 0.72
z= mm 400 (d-z) = 0.45x
Hence, x = mm 345
x/d = 0.62 > x/d limit for steel
