Transverse reinforcement
When profiled steel sheets are used, they may also act
as transverse reinforcement.
53
Transverse reinforcement
Total area of transverse reinforcement per
unit length crossing potential shear failure
surface = Ae
Total length of potential failure surface = Ls
Design shear per unit length, VEd, must not
exceed shear resistance of failure surface.
54
Transverse reinforcement
55
VEd = Fd/(hf x)
hf is the thickness of flange at the junctions
x is the length under consideration, see Figure below
Fd is the change of the normal force in the flange over the length x.

Transverse reinforcement
The transverse reinforcement per unit length Asf/sf may be determined as
follows:
The longitudinal shear stress is the stress transferred from the steel beam to the
concrete. This is determined from the minimum resistance of the steel, concrete
and shear connectors. In this example, with partial connection, the maximum
force that can be transferred is limited by the resistance of the shear connectors
over half of the span (x=3m) , and is given by Fd = Rq = 558 kN.
VEd = Fd/(hf x)
As there are two shear planes (one on each side of the beam, running
parallel to it).
The longitudinal shear stress is:
