8.1. A rectangular beam is 16 in. wide and 29 in. deep. For fc 4000 psi and f y 60,000 psi,
determine the required spacing of No. 4 (No. 13) closed stirrups for a factored shear of 80 kips and
factored torsional moment of 50 ft-kips. The stirrup centroid is located 1.75 in. from each concrete
face. The effective depth is 26.5 in.
