BEAM Beam A1/1A-2 is a beam under the second floor.

A1/1A-2 225 X 450
Loading calculation:

Beam self-weight = 5KN/m

Wall load = (3.75 x 3.0 x 1.4) = 15.75KN/m

PROVISION FOR LINKS:

BEAM
A1/1A-2 Design Shear force, Vmax due to ultimate load
= (34.69 x 3.975 x 0.5) = 68.946375KN

Design shear stress, v = Vmax/bd = 68946.375/(225 x 407) = 0.7529 N/mm2

100As/bd = (100 X 603)/(225X407) = 0.66

400/d = 400/407 = 0.98

Design concrete shear stress, vc = 0.79 X (100AS/bd)1/3 X (400/d)1/4

vc = 0.79 X (0.66)1/3 X (0.98)1/4

vc = 0.68N/mm2

vc + 0.4 = 1.08N/mm2
0.5vc = 0.34N/mm2

0.5vc < V < vc+0.4

Hence provide minimum links at a spacing of:
