Item: XXX
Assumptions:
1. The nib is assumed as a corbel, the effective width is
0
1088mm for outer plint, considering 45 dispersion

2. The height of the corbel is taken as the height of the nib


measured at centre of the plint
Ftv d
3. Load is assumed as a concentrated load at centre of plint
(425mm from wall of crosshead) FEd
ac
4. Horizontal action is not considered
5. Material factors are: Fthd

gc gs acc
z

Characteristic cylinder strength of concrete fck 32 N/mm2
Design strength for concrete strut, f cd = 0.6(1-f ck/250)(accfck/gc) fcd 11.16 N/mm2
Yield strength of rebar (both vertical and horizontal) fy 500 N/mm2
Main rebar (H16-200 over effective width) to resist F thd 6 x H16 As 1206.37 mm2
Ultimate horizontal tie force F thd = Asfy/gs Fthd 524.51 kN
Angle q (from equilibrium Fthd = FEd(cotq)) q 43.0 Degree
