18.
An R.C.C. beam of 6 m span is 30 cm wide and has a lever arm of 55 cm. If it carries a U.D.L. of 12 t per m and allowable shear stress is 5 kg/cm2, the beam
is safe in shear
is safe with stirrups
is safe with stirrups and inclined bars
needs revision of section

Well explained, Thanks @Pranay,

According to me;

As we know Share Stress = Share Force/lever arm * width of the beam.
Share Stress= 12*10^3/55*30 = 7.27kg/sqcm.
But allowable share stress is 5 kg/cm2 so, 7.27 exceeds 5, therefore we need to redesign it.

The shear stress = shear force/(lever arm * width of the beam) = (12 * 10^3 *6/2)/(55 *30)= 21.8 kg/cm^2.

Now section needs to be redesigned if shear stress exceeds 20 Kg/cm2.

@Pranay.

What is that 20 kg/cm2? Explain it in detail.
