Centroid of reinforcement;
M = 421 kNm
d = dbot = 1073 mm
Redistribution ratio;
b = 1.000
K = M / (b d2 fcu) = 0.023
K' = 0.156
K' > K - No compression reinforcement is required
Lever arm;
x = (d - z) / 0.45 = 119 mm
3 25 bars + 3 25 bars
V = 121 kN
v = V / (b d) = 0.282 N/mm2
v < 0.5vc
vs = max(v - vc, 0.4 N/mm2) = 0.400 N/mm2
