Challenge Problems
Push your limits with challenges.
Question 1
A new concrete beam is designed to hold a significant load. Calculate the shear reinforcement needed if the beam's dimensions are 200 mm height and 300 mm width, under a shear force of 50 kN, using standard shear design principles.
💡 Hint: Apply shear design principles as per the standard codes.
Question 2
Analyze an existing structure where shear failure occurred. Identify potential flaws in design or construction that may have led to this failure, and suggest remedial measures.
💡 Hint: Think critically about design safety.
