Table 7 Shear capacities of DT girder predicted based on AASHTO (2017)
From: Full-scale test of precast prestressed concrete double-tee girder for rural bridges
Section | Tensile stress of concrete and stirrup (kN) | Yielding stirrup before crushing web concrete (kN) | Inclined flexure-shear crack (kN) | Inclined web-shear crack (kN) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
9 m (or 3 m) | 1332 | 1349 | 1042 | 1678 |
4 m | 1084 | 1546 | 998 | 1403 |
