Design Parameters For Corbel:1: B D D D 450

This document provides design parameters and calculations for a corbel to support a maximum vertical load of 5 kN. It determines: 1) The dimensions of the bearing plate should be 200 mm x 300 mm to support the load. 2) The effective depth of the corbel should be 552 mm to satisfy shear and bearing stress criteria. 3) The lever arm is calculated as 551 mm using equilibrium equations. 4) Tension reinforcement of 6 #16 mm bars is required, which provides adequate steel area and satisfies spacing limits. 5) Stirrups spaced at 150 mm are sufficient to resist the shear force of 5 kN, which is significantly less than the corbel's

Design parameters for corbel:1

Characteristic strength of concrete fck = 30 N/mm2


Characteristic strength of steel fy = 500 N/mm2
Unit weight of concrete = 25 kN/m3
Bearing strength of concrete, σbr = 0.8 x fck = 24 N/mm2
Maximum shear stress for M30 grade of concrete, τcmax = 3.5 N/mm2
Nominal cover to reinforcement = 40 mm
Assumed diameter of the bar = 16 mm
Maximum neutral axis depth, xumax / d = 0.46

d Ds

Maximum vertical load, Fv = 5.00 kN


Width of the corbel = 450 mm
Distance of the load from the face of the column av = 300 mm

DIMENSIONS OF CORBEL:
(a) Breadth of bearing plate:
Bearing strength of concrete, = 24 N/mm2
Assume the length of bearing plate = 300 mm
Bearing area = Fv / σbr = (5 x (10^ 3) )/24 = 208.34 mm2
Width of the plate, b = 208.34/300 = 1 mm
Provide width of plate = 200 mm
The size of plate 200 mm x 300 mm

(b) Depth of bracket at support:


Assume τc value of 3 N/mm2
Effective depth ,d = 5x(10^3)/(3x450)= 4 mm
Hence Provide effective depth as "d" = 552 mm
Check for effective depth , av /d < 0.6
Hence av /d = 300/552 = 0.54
Hence av/d < 0.6 less than 0.6; corbel action

z/d = 0.997
z= 551 mm
x  2.22 (d - z) 2 mm
x/d= 0
No compression reinforcement required

(d) Resolution of forces:


Ft = P x av / z = 5 x (10^3) x 300 / 551= 3 kN
Fv / 2 = 5/ 2 = 3 kN
Ft = max(3,3) = 3 kN

(e) Area of tension reinforcement:


Ast = (Ft + Fh ) / fs =
es = 0.0035 (d - x ) / x = 0.0035 x (552-2) / 2 = 0.9625
For Es = 0.9625 fs = = 361 N/mm2
Ast = 3 x 1000 / 361 = 9 mm2
Ast min required (0.4/100) x450x552= 993.6 mm2
Provide 6 Nos of 16mm dia bars
Ast provided 201 x 6= 1206 mm2

(f) Check for minimum and maximum steel:


percentage of steel provided = 1206 x 100 / 450 x 552= 0.486 %
pt provided is greater than 0.4% and less than 1.3%. Hence safe

(g) Area of shear steel:


Minimum Asv = 0.5 Ast 1206/2 = 603 mm2
Provide 3 Nos of 2 legged 10mm dia stirrups in the upper two-third depth
Spacing = 2/3 x 552/2.5= 150 mm

(h) Shear capacity of the section:


Tc for 0.48551% of steel is = 0.52 N/mm2
av / d = = 0.54
Increased shear strength = 2 x 0.52/0.54= 1.93 N/mm2
The shear capacity of concrete is 1.93 x 450 x 552/1000= 479 kN
Shear capacity of steel 0.87 x 415 x 157 x 552/(150x1000)= 209 kN
Total shear capacity 479 + 209= 688 kN
688kN > 5kN Hence safe
