Notation

Ag = gross area of concrete section, in2
Av = area of shear reinforcement within spacing s, in.2
D = dead load
E = earthquake load
fc'= specified compressive strength of concrete, psi

Lr = roof live load
Mn = nominal flexural strength at section, in.-lb
Mu = factored moment at section, in.-lb
Pn = nominal axial compressive strength of member, lb
Pu = factored axial force; to be taken as positive for compression and negative for tension, lb
R = rain load
S = snow load
Tn = nominal torsional moment strength, in.-lb
Tu = factored torsional moment at section, in.-lb
U = strength of a member or cross section required to resist factored loads or related internal moments and forces in such combinations as stipulated in ACI 318-19
Vn = nominal shear strength, lb
Vu = factored shear force at section, lb
W = wind load
ϕ = strength reduction factor

...

Required Strength

The required strength is calculated in accordance with the factored load combinations in Load Factors and Combinations per ACI 318-19 with ideCAD title.

...

According to ACI 9.4.4.3, sections between the face of support and a critical section located d from the face of support can be designed for Tu at that critical section, except that there is a concentrated torsional moment within this distance.

...

Design Strength

Design strength in all sections should satisfy all conditions given below;
