... F-1 APPENDIX F: Recommended Revisions to Shear Provisions of AASHTO LRFD Concrete Provisions F.1 Scope This Appendix details the revisions to the shear provisions of Section. 5.8.3 of the LRFD Provisions recommended as a result of this study.

... F-2 effective as that at a distance greater than "dv" from the support. The MCFT, the basis for the existing AASHTO LRFD shear provisions, was derived from tests on plate elements uniformly loaded along their edges.

... F-3 The limitation on shear strength is principally imposed to guard against diagonal compression failure. The diagonal compressive stress, fd is determined as, = ( sin cos )

... F-4 LRFD method while largely eliminating the need for the iterative procedures of the current LRFD method. Therefore, modification of the current general procedures of Section 5.8.3.4.2 of the current LRFD method by adoption of the CSA 2004 method is proposed.

... F-7 is 2500 psi plus the stress that is taken by the vertical component of the prestressing. By contrast, the AASHTO STD and ACI 318-02 limit is just 1000-1400 psi.

... F-14 5.8.3.1 General The sectional design model may be used for shear design where permitted in accordance with the provisions of Article 5.8.1 C5.8.3.1 In the sectional design approach, the component is investigated by comparing the factored shear force and the factored shear resistance at a number of sections along its length. Usually this check is made at the tenth points of the span and at locations near the supports.

... F-16 Figure C5.8.3.2-3 Simplified Design Section For Loads Applied at or Above the Middepth of the Member. If the significant portion of the loads being resisted by the member are applied at a bearing resting on top of the member, the shear failure zone extends for a distance of approximately dv cot θ beyond the point of load application as shown in Figure C4.

... F-17 If the shear stress at the design section calculated in accordance with 5.8.2.9 exceeds 0.18f'c and the beamtype element is not built integrally with the support, its end region shall be designed using the strut-and-tie model specified in Article 5.6.3.

... F-18 down into the end bearing. Where the beam has a thin web so that the shear stress in the beam exceeds 0.18f'c, there is the possibility of a horizontal shear failure along the interface between the web and the lower flange of the beam.
