Using Strut-&-Tie method on a circular cross-section
Using Strut-&-Tie method on a circular cross-section
(OP)
ACI 318 chapter 11 shear design is a littler clearer for circular cross sections. Can anyone point me to the right direction if I wanted to design a circular cross section for shear using the Strut-and-Tie method.

The IBC has minimum tie spacing requirements I just wanted to compare the differencs between different types of tie spacing. What makes the Strut-&-Tie Model difficult is the circular cross-sectoin of the Pile and also the lateral resistance provided by the soil. Trying to see how to approach it.

If your program provides shear and moment diagrams, you already know the lateral resistance of the soil, so I fail to see the problem.
