For homogeneous beams, shear stress distribution across the section, = (V*A y)/(b*Ixx)
V= shear at the section
A= area out side the section when shear stress is required = b*c
y = distance from the centroid of A to the center of section. = (D/2)-(c/2)
Ixx = M.I. of beam = bD/12
For rectangular homogeneous sections, theshear stress distribution is parabolic.the

for a particular section, (F/I) is a constant.therefore varies as (a* y )*1
at extreme fibres intensity of shear stress will be zero.
When a beam is loaded with transverse loads, the B.M varies from section to
section. Shearing stresses in the beam are caused by this variation of B.M along the span.

consider ashort length x of an RCC beam as shown in fig. M and V be the moment and
shear at section CD, and M+M and V+V the moment and shear at section AB.taking
the moment of forces about side AB,
M+V*x w(x)/2 (M-M) = 0 as the section is in equilibrium.
w (x)/2 is a very small and can be neglected.
Therefore V*x M = 0
Or V*x = M
T*z
T = (V*x/z)
at any level, the difference in longitudinalforces induce horizontal shear stresses. At the
N.A, the difference in forces above it is c, which causes the shear stress on the area
(b*x) thus at N.A, = [c/(b*x)] = (Vx/z)*(1/b*x) = (V/b*z)
= (V/b*jd)
the shear stress distribution in RCC beam is zero at top and parabolic up to N.A at
the value is maximum and is equal to (V/b*jd).
Below the N.A as the concrete is cosidered ineffective in tension, the change in
longitudinal forces remains constant and is equal to C or T.
Shear stress, = (T/b*x) = (V*x/z)*(1/b*x) = (V/b*z)= (v/b*jd)
At C.G of bars the compression forces causing stress c are neutralised by equal and
opposite force T and hence, shear stress drops to zero.

Indian standard load recommonds to use normal shear stress given by the expression
v, nominal shear stress = V/bd
Where V = S.F at the section due to design loads.
b = breadth of beam, for flanged beams breadth of web
c, permissible shear stress in concrete in beams with out shear reinforcement is given in
table 23 of IS:456-2000.
The permissible shear stress depends upon two factors
(1) grade of concrete.
(2) Percentage of reinforcement (100As/bd)
c,max, maximum shear stress.
When shear reinforcement is provided the nominal shear stress v in beams shall
not exceed c,max given in table 24 of IS:456-2000.
Design of shear reinforcement.
V = S.F at the section due to design loads
Vc = shear resistance of concrete = cbd
Vs = shear to be resisted by steel
V = Vc+Vs or
Vs = V-Vc

when v exceeds c, shear reinforcement shall be provide.
Shear reinforcement shall be provided in any of the following forms.

Tension reinforcement
In the absence of shear reinforcement, the beam fails in diagonal tension, the inclination
of the tension cracks being at 45 to the axis of the beam and extended upto horizantal
distance equal to d-d d.
There fore number of vertical stirrups resisting shear force = d/Sv
Asv = area of each stirrup.
For 2 legged vertical stirrups, area of each stirrup = area of 2- legs.
sv = permissible tensile stress in shear reinforcement
there fore shear resistance of stirrups = shear resistance of each stirrup*no.of stirrups.
Vs = (Asv*sv)d/Sv
Or
Sv = Asv*sv*d/Vs

Shear Force diagram
For simply supported beams critical section for S.F is located at a distance d
from the face of support (ref: cl.22.6.2.1 of IS:456-2000)
Therefore S.F at the C/S = (wl/2) (wd)
V = (20*3.5/2)-(20*0.38)
V = 27.4KN.

c,permissible shear stress:
% of tension steel = 100As/bd.

Assuming the given span as clear span shear force at the critical section (at d
from the face of support )
V = (W*5/6)+(w*l/2) (w*d).
Where d = 700-35 = 665mm
Self weight of beam = 0.4*0.7*1*25 = 7KN/m
Therefore V = (150*5/6)+(25*6/2) (25*0.665).

Assume that bars 2 and 5 are bent up at 45.
When 2 bars are bent up, remaining bars are 4 nos and they continued to the support.
Therefore % of tension reinforcement = (100*As/bd)
= (100*4*314/400*665)
= 0.47%.
therefore for 0.47% steel & M20 grade concrete,
c, permissible shear stress = 0.47N/mm.
0.47<1.03<2.8
c < v < c,max
Therefore provide shear reinforcement.

However, maximum contribution of shear possible by bent up bars = 50% of Vus
= 0.5*150
= 75KN
Net shear to be resisted by vertical stirrups = 0.5*150 = 75KN.
Using 8mm 2-legged vertical stirrups, spacing

For vertical stirrups:
V'us = (0.87*fy*Asv*d)/Sv
For bent up bars(single group):
Vus = 0.87*fy*Asv*sin.
For series of bent up bars or inclined stirrups:
V'us = [0.87*fy*Asv*d*( sin +cos)]/Sv.
However V'us 0.5Vus
Minimum shear reinforcement:
Sv = (0.87*fy*Asv)/(0.4*b)

a rectangular beam 350mm wide and 500mm effective consist of 4-25mm bars out
of which two bars are to be bent up at 1m from support with 45 inclination. Design
the shear reinforcement the beam is subjected to shear force of linear variation with
200KN at the support and zero at mid span, which is 3m from support. Use M25
concrete and Fe415 steel. Adopt L.S.M
Maximum shear force at the face of support = 200KN
Shear force at the critical section located at d from the face of support
Vu = 200(2.5/3) = 166.7KN.
v, nominal shear stress = (Vu/bd) = (166.7*10/350*500)

% of tension steel after bending up 2-25mm bars is (remaining bars consists of 225mm)

for 0.56% steel & M25 concrete

DEVELOPMENT LENGTH
BOND: The grip of the reinforcement and concrete due to adhesion or bearing is termed
as bond.
Development length: A length of reinforcement embedded in concrete so that it can
develop the stress by bond is termed as development length.
The bond between concrete and steel is responsible for the transfer of axial
force from a reinforcing bar to the surrounding concrete, there by providing strain
compatibility and composite action of concrete and steel.If this bond is adequate, slipping
of reinforcing bar will occur, destroying full composite action.
It is through the action of bond resistance that the axial stress in a reinforcing bar
can under go variation from point to point along its length had the bond been absent, the
stress at all points on a straight bar would be constant, as a string or a straight cable.
Bond resistance in R.C.C. is achieved through the following mechanism.
(1) Chemical action: Due to a gum-like property in the products of hydration formed
during the making of concrete.
(2) Frictional resistance: Due to surface roughness of the reinforcement and the grip
extended by the concrete shrinkage.
(3) Mechanical interlock: Due to surface protrusions or ribs provided in deformed
bars.
Bond stress(bd):
Bond resistance is achieved by the development of tangential stress (shear)
components along the inter face (contact surface) between the reinforcing bar and the
surrounding concrete. The stress so developed at the inter face is called bond stress, and
is expressed in terms of the tangential face per unit nominal surface area of the
reinforcing bar.
bd
Development length:
Pull out test:To find development length, consider a pull out test as shown in fig.
Diameter of rod =
Embedment length = Ld
Pull = P
Average bond stress in concrete = bd
Working stress in bar = s
Let the axial pull P is increased gradully pull P is noted when the bar is puled out.
The bond resistance of concrete and the strength of bar can be equated.
bd**Ld = (s*)/4
Ld = (s*)/(4*bd) = (s)/(4*bd)

At certain locations in a beam, high bond stress may arise due to large variations of
bending moment over a short distance, i.e. high shear force.These bond stress are called
flexural bond stresses and must be checked at the face of a simply support and at the

bd = (Ast*s)/( o*Ld)

Where M1 = M.R.with respect to tension steel alone at the section under consideration
V = shear force at the same section
If the permissible bond stress bd is not be exceeded, the ratio M1/V be must be equal to
or greater than Ld. As an additional factor of safety, the code has added, the anchorage
length Lo to the right hand side of Eq (3).,i.e.
Ld (M1/V)+Lo.
Where Lo = sum of the anchorage beyond the centre of support.
Anchorage bond stress:

required is satisfied.
