    This document summarizes the design of a 1000mm wide corbel extension with 955mm total thickness and 858mm depth to main reinforcement. Material properties and design loads are provided. Calculations show the corbel section is adequate to resist the ultimate vertical load of 178.5kN and horizontal force of 35.7kN. The required main flexural steel is 454.7mm2 which is less than the provided reinforcement of 2513mm2 using 8 bars of 20mm diameter. Therefore, the corbel section is determined to be safe.

    CORBEL EXTENSION

    Width of corbel, b 1000 mm


    Total thickness of corbel, h 955 mm
    Depth to main reinforcement, d 858 mm

    Material Properties
    Yield strength of reinforcement, fy 420 N/mm
    2

    Compressive strength of concrete, fc’


    (cylinder) (80%strength) 36 N/mm2
    Normal weight concrete, λ 1
    Coefficient friction, μ 1.4λ ACI 318 11.6.4.3
    1.4
    Design Load Data
    Ultimate vertical load, Vu 178.5 Kn
    wheel length is 250mm
    so the load is taken
    Distance from face to column, av 420 mm
    as acting at the centre
    125mm (545-125=420)
    Ultimate Horizontal force, Nu 35.7 kn
    Strength reduction factor, ϕ 0.75 ACI 318 R 11.8.3.1

    Design Procedure

    Check section
    If 0.2 x fc’x b x d > VU 6177.6 kn ACI 318 11.8.3.2.1
    Section is OK
    shear friction reinforcement (11.6.4.1)

    Avf = Vu /μ fy 303.571429 mm /mm 11.6.4

    flexural reinforcement

    Mu = Vu av + Nu (h – d) 78432900 ACI 318 Cl.11.8.3.3


    Af = Mu / ϕ fy (0.85d) 2
    341.414141 mm /mm

    reinforcent to carry tensile force

    An = Nu/ ϕfy 113.333333 mm /mm 11.8.3.4

    Required main flexural steel (Asc)


    larger of ACI 11.8.3.5
    Af + An 454.747475
    2Avf/3 + An 315.714286

    Asc 2
    454.7 mm /mm

    Asc_prov (8 nos 20mm dia bar) 2513mm2

    Asc > Asc_prov


    so the corbel section is safe
