Design of Vertical Stirrup

The document provides the design parameters for calculating the spacing of vertical stirrups in a concrete beam. It gives the material properties, beam dimensions, shear forces, and other relevant values. It then calculates the shear strength provided by the concrete (Vc), maximum allowed shear reinforcement (Vs.max), and required shear reinforcement (Vs). Based on the required shear and code requirements, it determines that shear reinforcement is needed. It then calculates the maximum spacing (Smax) and minimum spacing (S) of the stirrups, resulting in a recommended spacing of 210 mm.
