    This document outlines a 3-step design approach for minimum transverse reinforcement in concrete members: 1) Define the member as either compression or flexural based on an equation comparing shear stress and concrete strength, 2) Check if load points fall within a PM interaction diagram for the core concrete section, 3) Apply the relevant AASHTO code articles for shear reinforcement based on whether the member is compression or flexural.

    DESIGN APPROACH OF MINIMUM TRANSVERSE REINFORCEMENT

    1) Step 1: Define a member at Strength and Extreme Limit State if it is a compression member or a flexural member
    based on the following equation. (ACI 318-08 21.5.1 and 21.6.1, African Concrete Code symposium)


    If yes, it will be a compression member, so the next step shall be taken.
    If no, it will be a flexural member, AASHTO 5.8.2.5 (shear reinforcement) shall apply.

    2) Step 2: Check where load points at Strength and Extreme Limit State are in PM interaction diagram which is
    generated by the concrete core section equivalent to the section after concrete cover spalling off.

    No Yes
    3) Step 3: Apply AASHTO Articles mentioned in the above flow chart.
