This will calculate the shear strength for a beam that doesn't have minimum stirrups in it.
Recall that minimum stirrups in the code are one root of the concrete strength.
That is, a 2500 psi concrete has a minimum stirrup level of 50 psi, but 10,000 psi concrete requires 100 psi of stirrups
Purpose:
A non-iterative technique is provided that will doubly interpolate in the tables and calculate the shear strength
for the given level crack spacing and moment to shear ratio. No macros or goal seeks are used.
Stirrups may be specified and will be included.
Units
Method:
This spreadsheet works identically to the one with stirrups. Rather than interpolating with level of stirrups, however, it uses crack spacing.
for each value of ex, the beta and theta values are interpolated at the given level of crack spacing
These values are used to calculate moment and shears, and the final answer is interpolated from that.
Usage:
Fill in the yellow cells below and the shear strength will show up in the green cells to the right of the yellow ones.

A non-iterative technique is provided that will doubly interpolate in the tables and calculate the shear strength
for the given level of stirrups and moment to shear ratio. No macros or goal seeking are used.
Units
Method:
The quantity of stirrups is calculated for each cell in the beta-theta table.
for each value of ex, the beta and theta values are interpolated at the provided level of transverse reinforcement
These values are used to calculate moment and shears, and the final answer is interpolated from that.
Usage:
Fill in the yellow cells below and the shear strength will show up in the green cells to the right of the yellow ones.

AASHTO-99 Calculator
This will calculate the shear strength of a beam with stirrups for a given M:V ratio using
Purpose:
A non-iterative technique is provided that will doubly interpolate in the tables and calculate the shear strength
for the given level of stirrups and moment to shear ratio. No macros or goal seeking are used.
Units
US customary units
Method:
The quantity of stirrups is calculated for each cell in the beta-theta table.
for each value of ex, the beta and theta values are interpolated at the provided level of transverse reinforcement
These values are used to calculate moment and shears, and the final answer is interpolated from that.
Usage:
Fill in the yellow cells below and the shear strength will show up in the green cells to the right of the yellow ones.
The spreadsheet ends with an interaction diagram as well as the input for the example in the State of the art report (ASCE Dec 1998)
License:
This spreadsheet was written by Evan Bentz, March 1999. Permission is given to use, copy, duplicate and dissect this spreadsheet in
any way.
Limits:
This version (so far), has mistakes if phi is anything but 1.0.
Notes:
Recall that, in general, the dv for the top and bottom of a section are different. Using the smaller in conservative, but in some cases, it
may be worthwhile to use this spreadsheet once with the positive dv, then again with the negative and hand stitch them together.
