Engineer has to provide hor. anchor reinforcement such as hor. hair pin or enclosed
stirrup around the shear key
pocket to resist the concrete breakout. When the non-enclosed
or open hor. rebar such as hair pin is used,
engineer has to ensure that the rebar
has adequate development length l d or l dh on both sides of
failure plane
as shown in ACI 318-11 Fig. RD.6.2.9(a)
* For enclosed tie, at hook location the tie cannot develop full yield strength
f y . Use the pullout resistance in
tension of a single hooked bolt as per ACI 318-11 Eq. (D-15)
as the max force can be developed at hook T h
* Assume 100% of hor. tie bars can develop full yield strength
Total number of hor tie bar n=n leg (leg) x n lay (layer) =12
