ideCAD checks the beam-column joint shear limits according to ACI 318-19 Chapter 15

The joint shear design should consider the shear resulting from the moment created by gravity load, wind, earthquake, or other lateral forces at beam-column joints.

...

  • The column extends above the joint at least one column depth, h, measured in the direction of the joint shear considered.

  • Longitudinal and transverse reinforcement from the column below the joint is continued through the extension.

...

  • The width of each transverse beam is at least three-quarters of the width of the column face into which the beam frames

  • Transverse beams extend at least one beam depth h beyond the joint faces

  • Transverse beams contain at least two continuous top and bottom bars satisfying ACI 9.6.1.2 and No. 3 or larger more oversized stirrups satisfying ACI 9.6.3.4and 9.7.6.2.2.
