Question

An RCC beam of width 250mm and effective depth 450mm is subjected to a factored shear force of 60kN. The grade of materials used are M20 and Fe415. The concrete shear strength is 0.8N/mm2. The spacing (in mm, correct upto two decimal place) of 8mm dia two legged stirrups is ___.
  1. 300

Solution

The correct option is A 300
Nominal shear stress =Vubd
=60×1000250×450=0.533N/mm2<0.8N/mm2
Minimum shear reinforcement is to be provided.

0.87×415×(2×π4×82)0.4×250
362.97mm
Maximum spacing allowed =min(300mm or 0.75d)
=min(300mm or 0.75×450)=300mm
Spacing of stirrups provided =300mm
