5.9.8 Examples—Shear wall strength
and shear friction
Example 5.5
Calculate the design shear strength of the shear wall detailed as follows:
Concrete:
f ´ c = 4.0 ksi
E c (ksi) = 57√ f ´ c (psi) = 3600 ksi
Vertical reinforcement:
f ffu = f fd = 60 ksi
E f = 6000 ksi
A f 1 = #5@12 in. = 0.3 in. 2 /ft
Layer 1
A f 2 = #5@8 in. = 0.45 in. 2 /ft Layer 2
Horizontal reinforcement:
f ffu = 60 ksi
E fv = 6000 ksi
A fv = #3@12 in. Two layers
Size:
b = 12.0 in. Wall thickness
l w = 16 ft Wall length
Solution:
Concrete contribution, V c :
ρ f = ( A f 1 + A f 2 )/ b = 0.0625 in./
ft = 0.00521
n f = E f / E c = (6000 ksi)/(3600 ksi)
= 1.67
n f ρ f = 0.00868
k = 0.0852 Equation (5.64)
c = kl w = 16.4 in.
V c = 62.2 kip
Shear reinforcement contribution, V f :
A fv = 2#3@12 in. = 0.22 in. 2
s = 12.0 in.
f fv = 0.004 E fv f ffb
f ffb = f ffu = 60 ksi
No bends
f fv = 24.0 ksi
d = 0.8 l w = 153.6 in.
V f = A fv f fv d / s = 67.6 kip
The nominal shear strength:
V n = V c + V s = 129.8 kip
And the design shear strength:
ϕ V n = 97.4 kip
