Maximum Design shear stress, V= 0.697 N/mm
2
Allowable Shear strength of pile cap = 0.35 N/mm (For the given Footing Reinforcement From Mat 3D)
2
Design Differential shear stress, V= 0.69-0.35= 0.35 N/mm (To be taken by shear stirrups)
For a conservative design ,
2
MAX differential shear stress considered,VEd = 0.5 N/mm
For members with vertical Shear reinforcement, Shear resistance value VRd should be smaller of

and

Asw/S = VEd bw /(fywd cot θ)

Asw/S = 0.4 mm

Try 10 Diameter Links with 2 legs


2
Asw = 157.08 mm
= 157.08 / 0.4
Spacing required, S < 392.7 mm

Hence, provide 10 dia Bars @ 300 C/C

However, for PC-13, shear stirrups of 10 dia with 4 legs have been provided and
for PC 5 and PC 9 , 10 dia stirrups with 2 legs have been provided
Refer Pilecap Reinforcement sketch
