Calculation of Lifting Reinforcement: CK 2 CTM 2 Yk 2 S
1.0 Introduction
When a load is transferred through the bottom or side of a beam, as in the case of upstanding beam with deck
slab at bottom , adequate suspension/lifting reinforcement in the form of stirrups is provided in the beam to
transfer the load to the top of the beam. This document presents calculation of tension reinforcement required
to support hanging actions due to indirect supports. It transfers external or internal loads to compression zone
or in between compression zone.
