Hello,
I am currently building a spreadsheet to design anchor reinforcing for shear in piers according to ACI 318-19.
When designing the diagonal strut component, what Bs and Bc values should be used?
Bs = 0.4 (tension members) and Bc = 1 ? Assuming net uplift in the pier.
The reference shown below (PIP STE0521) is assuming a strut coefficient of 1 with net uplift applied to the pier, which is higher than my assumption.
Is the assumption I am making, Bs = 0.4 incorrect?
Thank you!
