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. The required shear strength of a column Vu , is obtained from Load Combinations given in ACI Table 5.3.1.

...

Strength reduction factors ϕ is determined according to using ACI Table 21.2.1. Interaction between load effects is considered.

...

The nominal shear strength Vn for a column is calculated in accordance with One-Way Shear Strength per ACI 318-19 with ideCAD title. In addition, Vs and Vc calculations are also described in the same title.

At each section of a column where Vu > ϕVc, transverse reinforcement is provided such that ACI Eq. (22.5.8.1) should be satisfied.

...

Strength reduction factors ϕ is determined according to using ACI Table 21.2.1.

Columns of Earthquake Resistant Structures must satisfy (Av)min condition.

Shear Design for Columns of Earthquake Resistant Structures

Ordinary moment frames

Columns having unsupported length ln≤5c1 shall have ϕVn at least the lesser of two conditions given below;

  1. The shear is associated with the development of nominal moment strengths of the column at each restrained end of the unsupported length due to reverse curvature bending. Column flexural strength shall be calculated for factored axial force, consistent with the direction of the lateral forces considered, resisting in the highest flexural strength.

  2. The maximum shear force obtained from design load combinations that include E, with oE substituted for E. Overstrength factor Ωo given ACSE 7.16, is determined in accordance with Design Coefficients and Factors for Seismic Force-Resisting System per ASCE 7-16 §11.2 title.

...

Intermediate moment frames

The design shear strength of column ϕVn should be at least the lesser of two conditions given below;

...

Transverse reinforcement at the ends of columns is required to be spirals or hoops.

...

Special moment frames

The design shear force Ve is calculated by considering the maximum forces that can be generated at the faces of the joints at each end of the column. These joint forces are calculated using the maximum probable flexural strength, Mpr. Two different capacity shear forces are calculated using Mpr for each direction (major and minor).

...

The design shear force Ve, is taken as the minimum of these two values but never less than the factored shear obtained from the design load combination.
Moment strengths are to be determined using a strength reduction factor, ϕ of 1.0 and reinforcement with an effective yield stress equal to 1.25fy.

...

The maximum possible positive and negative moment strengths of the column, Mpr3+, and Mpr4-, in a particular direction under the effect of the axial force Pu is calculated using the three-dimensional interaction surface in the corresponding direction. Mpr3 and Mpr4 are calculated by using a strength reduction factor, ϕ of 1.0, and longitudinal reinforcement with an effective yield stress equal to 1.25fy.
