Transverse Reinforcing
This section gives the transverse reinforcing required to resist the longitudinal shear.
| Setting | Description |
|---|---|
| Reinforcement fyk | Yield strength of the reinforcement. |
| Total Longitudinal v | Total longitudinal shear. |
| Longitudinal v | Longitudinal shear to be resisted on the side of the beam indicated. |
| vEd |
Total design shear stress. |
| fyp | Design yield strength of the profiled steel sheeting. |
| tp | Thickness of the profiled steel sheeting. |
| Sheeting Continuous | Indicator for the condition of the profiled steel sheeting continuous (Yes) or discontinuous (No) over the top flange of the beam. |
| Sheet Asf | Contribution of the profiled steel sheeting to resist the longitudinal shear, as an equivalent transformed area of reinforcing |
| Req'd Reinf Asf | The required area of transverse reinforcement per unit length of beam. |
