14.STM method for pile caps may result in more flexural reinforcement than what
one would have obtained by using beam theory. However, no shear reinforcement wi
ll be required. STM method requires reinforcement to be distributed in bands. No
minal reinforcement is required to be provided in other areas for serviceability
considerations. Please refer Nori, V.V. and M.S. Tharval's paper in ICJ,April 2
