where q(T) is the shear flow due to torsion evaluated using Eq. 4.1 and
q(V) is the shear flow due to shear as given by Eq. 4.2. Values of the
compression stress, fd(T,V), are tabulated in column (8) of Table 4.2.
The maximum value is 1.78 ksi, which is below the maximum value
30 Jf';, = 1.9 ksi. The maximum value of 1.78 ksi is somewhat close to
the maximum allowed value; if it exceeded the minimum a steeper Q' could
be chosen which would then reduce the maximum value.
4.3.4 Design of Transverse Reinforcement. Once the truss model
has been selected and the compression stresses in the diagonal members
of the truss model have been evaluated to ensure that premature failure
due to crushing of the concrete in the web is prevented, the internal
forces for the chosen truss model can be evaluated and the design
process becomes relatively simple and straightforward.
Shown in Figs. 4.21 and 4.22 is a typical design zone (panel 2-
3) of the truss model shown ip Fig. 4.18.
The vertical dimension of the truss model zL is determined as
the vertical distance between the centroids of the longitudinal chords
of the truss model. In this case, as shown in Fig. 4.15, zL is equal to
12.94 inches. Hence, the horizontal dimension of the typical truss
panel zLcota shown in Fig. 4.18 becomes 26 inches. Note that
conveniently there are then six panels or design zones between the
support and the centerline and twelve panels in the overall structure.
