Shear Wall Pier Design Guide

The document discusses options for assigning and designing pier sections in shear walls using a structural analysis software. It describes the ability to assign user-defined, general reinforcing, and simplified C and T pier sections. It also provides an example of designing a simplified T and C pier section under the BS8110 97 standard.

User defined section will be checked for the user defined reinforcing pattern. The program will
report the demand / capacity ratio and required shear reinforcing for the governing load
combination.

If there is a three dimensional wall system, the shear design will be reported to the first
inadequate leg or Leg requiring most rebar per unit length.

Simplified C&T Pier section

The pier geometry is defined by a length, thickness and size of the edge members at each end of
the pier (if any).

The pier section flexural design will be performed to edge strip of pier section and it ignores the
resistance from the middle strip.

Program will report the required width of edge strip to resist the axial and over turning moment
and required reinforcing in the governing compression and tension load combination.

Program will perform shear design by considering the full length of the pier section and reports
the required shear reinforcing per unit length for the governing load case.

Limitations:

In planar walls, the minor axis moment effect will be ignored.

Effects resulting from warping stresses i.e. torsion will be ignored, (wall with numerous
opening)

Assumes that the members with shear reinforcement providing a design shear of
0.4 N/mm2.

Shear stress is not limited to the requirement of high strength concrete. (I.e. feu > 55 MPa)
