    Flexural Steel in Beam ACI 318-19(22) 9.6.1.3

    I understand from the deep beam section in ACI to add reinforcing to the faces which I have already. My question was more about the flexural steel which leads to section 9.6.1.3 which was my original confusion. Rather than needing two layers of 6 #8 bars or something like that I can get away...

    Flexural Steel in Beam ACI 318-19(22) 9.6.1.3

    9.9.3.2 still refers to 9.6.1 for min area of flexural tension reinforcement unless I'm mistaken.

    Flexural Steel in Beam ACI 318-19(22) 9.6.1.3

    I've got a 'beam' section that is 22" wide by 118" deep and 114" long. Factored moment on the beam is 188.61 kip-ft so I'm getting from analysis .32 in2 of steel required. The minimum steel from ACI 318 comes to 8.45in2. Is this where section 9.6.1.3 comes into play? Saying that if As is 1/3...

    Overturning Load Anchor Bolt Hand Calcs

    I guess in addition that that, I took the neutral axis at the left edge of the plate. Is that correct? Or is there something I have to do to move the moment from the left edge to the center of the plate?

    Overturning Load Anchor Bolt Hand Calcs

    Wouldn't P/A be kN/m^2 and then My/l be kN/m? P= 49.5kN A= 1.53m^2 M= 56kNm y= 1.25m l= .31 m^3 Obviously don't need you to run through the numbers but just using units I'm still a little confused. Is it A*(d^2) or (A*d)^2? I guess the latter would work out unit wise.

    Overturning Load Anchor Bolt Hand Calcs

    I have a project where overturning is a concern and am confused on how to get the "actual" tension in the anchor bolts that are being proposed. I understand the work flow through ACI on how to solve for the required strengths on concrete breakout and side face blowout etc. A lot of resources are...

    Basic Overturning Question

    That was my first thought but must've been overthinking it! Thank you!

    Basic Overturning Question

    That's what my first thought was but was overthinking it i guess. So (14.85kips + 7kips) * (4.125ft) = 90.13kip-ft (42 kip-ft * 2(SF)) = 84 kip-ft 90.13kip-ft > 84kip-ft so it will not overturn. Thank you!

    Basic Overturning Question

    I have a basic foundation overturning question. A machine is anchored to a foundation with a 42kip-ft counterclockwise moment on the plate at the left side. The machine weight and concrete weight produce a 21.85 kip force down at the center. Will this foundation overturn? Do I take the moment at...
