A 24” wide rectangular beam is to be designed for shear. Assume f’ c =4000psi and f yt =40ksi.
a. For a maximum factored shear load of 44k, select an effective depth so that no shear reinforcement is required.
b. Using the beam dimensions calculated above, design the required shear reinforcement (bar size and spacing) if the maximum factored shear load is increased to 75k.
