Lightweight concrete members not requiring design shear reinforcement: the values of CRd,c, vmin and k1
Eurocode 2 part 1-1: Design of concrete structures 11.6.1 (1)
The design value of the shear resistance of a lightweight concrete member without shear reinforcement VlRd,c is given by:
| VlRd,c = [ClRd,c η1 k (100 ρl flck)1/3 + k1 σcp] bw d ≥ (η1 vl,min + k1 σcp) bw d | (11.6.2) |
Recommendation
The recommended value for ClRd,c is 0,15/γC, that for vl,min is 0,028k3/2flck1/2 and that for k1 is 0,15.
