2)Given:

f'c= 21 Vmax= 304.8 kn

fy= 420 As= 3870 mm^2
DL= 18 ϕ= 0.85
LL= 30 Av= 142 mm^2
L= 4
b= 500 calculate 2/3√f'c bd
d= 0.73 = 1115.09 >VS
the cross section is adequate!!!
wu=1.4(DL)+1.7(LL)
wu= 76.2 kn calculate 1/3√f'c bd
= 557.547 KN
Vu=Vmax-Wud
Vu 249.174 KN det. Stirrups spacing
theoritical spacing
VC=1/6√f'c (bd) S=Avfy(d/Vs)
VC 278.773 KN = 1771.51 mm

Alternative VC: S=D/2 < 600

VC=(√f'c + 120ρ(vu*d/Mu)(bd/7) = 365 mm< 600
solve for ρ
ρ= 0.0106 S=16(Avfy)/√f'c b
= 416.464 mm
solve for MU:
MU=0.5(Vmax+Vu)(d) S=3(Avfy)/ b
MU= 407.399 KN●m = 357.84 mm

Vu*d/MU0.44648 where to start S=365mm

VC= 268.57 solve for VS capacity for S=365mm

use VC= 268.57 KN VS=Avfy(d/S)

ϕVC= 228.284 119.28 KN
0.5ϕVC= 114.142
ϕVN=.85(VS+VC)
VS=Vu/ϕ-VC = 329.672 KN
VS= 24.5763 KN

304.8-76.2X=329.6721
X= -326.41 mm
