    Given:

    bw = 14 in
    bw = 350 mm
    h = 25 in
    h = 625 mm
    d = 22.5 in
    d = 571.5 mm
    fc' = 4000 psi
    fc' = 27.56 MPa
    fyt = 60000 psi
    fyt = 413.4 MPa
    wuv(vert.load) = 3100 lb/ft
    wuv(vert.load) = 45.24087927 N/mm
    wut(torsion load) = 2600 ft-lb/ft
    wut(torsion load) = 11565.32 N-mm/mm
    L = 30 ft
    L = 9144 mm
    conc. cover = 1.75 in
    conc. cover = 40 mm
    λ = 1.00 Normal Weight Concrete

    Asked:
    s

    Solution:

    Vmax = wuvL/2
    Vmax = 206841.3 N

    Vu = Vmax(L/2-bw/2)/(L/2)
    Vu = 206181.5372 N

    Tu = wutL/2
    Tu = 52876643.04 N-mm
    1. Is Torsional Reinforcing Needed?

    Acp = b wh
    2
    Acp = 218750 mm

    Pcp = 2bw+2h
    Pcp = 1950 mm

    Tu = 52876643.04 N-mm
    ' 2
    0.083λ√fc [Acp /Pcp] = 10692498.82 N-mm NSCP2015 Table 422.7.4.1(a)
    0.083λ√fc' [Acp2/Pcp] = 10692498.82 N-mm

    10692498.82 < 52876643.04


    0.083λ√fc' [Acp2/Pcp] < Tu

    Therefore, torsion should be considered.

    2. Sectional Properties Computation

    x1 = 270 mm
    y1 = 545 mm

    Aoh = x1y1
    2
    Aoh = 147150 mm
    Ao = 0.85Aoh NSCP2015 Section 422.7.6.1.1
    2
    Ao = 125077.5 mm
    ph = 2(x1+y1)
    ph = 1630 in

    3. Is the concrete section sufficient enough for torsion?

    Vc = 0.17λ√(fc') bwd
    Vc = 178514.2161 N

    Vu/bwd = 1.030778839 MPa


    TuPh/1.7Aoh2 2.341434567 MPa

    Vc/bwd = 0.892459523 MPa


    0.66√fc' = 3.464842854 MPa

    √[(Vu/bwd)2+(TuPh/1.7Aoh2)2] ≤ φ[ (Vc/bwd) + 8√fc' ] NSCP2015 Section 422.7.7.1


    2.558284747 ≤ 3.267976782

    Therefore, section is sufficient.

    4. Solving for Required Transverse Torsional Reinfocing

    Tn = Tu/φ
    Tn = 70502190.72 N-mm

    Assume ϴ = 45° per ACI Section 22.7.6.1.2

    At/s = Tn/2Aofyt cot ϴ NSCP2015 Equation 422.7.6.1a


    2
    At/s = 0.681746555 mm /mm
    5. Shear Reinforcing Area Required

    Vu = 206181537.2 N
    0.5φVc = 66942.83102 N
    Vu > 0.5φVc
    Therefore, shear reinforcement is required

    Vs = (Vu - φVc)/φ
    Vs = 96394.50017 N

    Av/s = Vs/fytd
    2
    Av/s = 0.40800506 mm /mm

    For 2-legged stirrups, web reinforcing required is:


    Av+t/s = 2At/s + Av/s
    = 1.771498169 mm2/mm

    Using No.4 Stirrups


    2
    Astirrup = 132.7322896 mm
    s = 2Astirrup/(Av+t/s)
    s = 149.8531491 mm
    say, 140 mm

    Max. Allow. Spacing of Stirrups

    smax = 300 mm NSCP2015 Section 422.7.6.3


    Ph/8 = 203.75 mm NSCP2015 Section 422.7.6.3
    say, 200 mm

    Av+2At
    0.062√fc' bws/fyt = 38.57952746 mm NSCP2015 Section 409.6.4.2
    0.35bws/fyt = 41.48524432 mm NSCP2015 Section 409.6.4.2
    2(Astirrup) = 265.4645792 mm

    0.062√fc' bws/fyt < 0.35bws/fyt < 2(Astirrup)


    Therefore, use No.4 stirrups @ 140 mm o.c.

    6. Determining Longitudinal Torsional Reinforcing

    Al = (At/s)ph(fyt/fy)cot2ϴ
    2
    Al = 1111.246884 mm

    2
    At/s = 0.681746555 mm /mm
    2
    0.175bw/fyt = 0.148161587 mm /mm
    0.681746555 > 0.148161587

    Therefore:
    min. Al = (0.42√fc' Acp/fy) - [(At/s)ph(fyt/fy)] NSCP2015 Section 409.6.4.3
    2
    min. Al = 55.47269588 mm

    55.47269588 < 1111.246884


    Therefore, OK!!

    Using No. 4 Stirrups


    No. of stirrups = Al/Astirrup
    No. of stirrups = 8.372091581
    say, 10 pcs
    Answers:

    Add Transverse Two-legged No.4 stirrups @ 140 mm O.C.


    Add 10-Longitudinal No.4 stirrups distributed around as shown.
