PCA Rentangular Tanks Design - Question about Example(SIMPLE)
(OP)
I have a question about the PCA Rentangular Tank Example.
In the First Example
Design Information
Dimension : 30ft X 20ft X 10 ft
Wall thickness : 18 in.
There is Shear Strength (Vc)
Vc = 2 X [fc][/0.5] X b X d -> I belive that it has came from ACi 350-06 11.3.1.1
d = effective depth = thickness wall - cover - db/2 = 18 - 2 - 5/16 = 15.7 in.
Vc = 2 X [4000][/0.5] X 12 X 15.7
What I'd like to ask you is "12". Where does this value(12) come from???
Thank you for reading this.

Ah!!! Thanks! I'm not quite used to use US unit. So sorry for the silly question.
