A. | 1/10th of span |
B. | 1/30th of span |
C. | 1/15th of span |
D. | 1/5th of span |
Answer» B. 1/30th of span | |
Explanation: design codes prescribe beam width limitations to minimise the shear lag effect on the formation of full-width plastic hinges and achieving the expected capacity. however, owing to insufficient experimental and analytical studies, empirical design formulas for the beam width limitation, with |
