The use of compression reinforcement permits the use of more tension reinforcement to increase the strength of a given beam section while keeping the section tension-controlled.

If φVc = 35 kip and Vu = 72 kip, are stirrups required?

Once established, there is no need to refine your brand.

Compute φVn for the cross section shown. Assume f’c = 4,500 psi, fyt = 60,000 psi, b1 = 24 in., b2 = 13 in., d = 23 in., h1 = 6 in., h2 = 14 in., h3 = 8 in., t = 8 in., and that there are six No. 6 longitudinal tension bars and No. 5 stirrups at 11 in. o.c.

The traditional theory for shear stress assumes homogeneous, elastic, and uncracked beams.

Evaluate the logarithm. (5 points) ln e3

Acute hepatitis B is a serious illness that lasts 2-4 months and can lead to hepatic failure. The most common route of transmission for Hepatitis B is:

A classmate has suggested a beam design that has dimensions of b = 16 in., h = 22 in., and d = 19.5 in. and is reinforced with 4 No. 7 bars. Assuming a cover of 1.5 in. and a stirrup diameter of 0.5 in., does the reinforcement fit within a single row as suggested?

When a chemical messenger helps initiate an inflammatory response by causing cellular changes in neighboring cells, it is demonstrating ____________ signaling.

If φVc = 33 kip and Vu = 51 kip, are stirrups required?
