Torsion design in beams
Torsion design in beams
(OP)
Please see the picture of sleeper supporting pile load over it. The torsion is assumed to be on the pile cap 650x 1000mm.
Minimum reinforcement in ACI has
(Av+2At) = 0.062*(fc^0.5)*bw*s/fyt
bw is the web, for torsion design of pile cap bw should be taken as 650mm, not 1000mm. can anybody clarify with an example.

Since some of them still feel that bw is web width = 650 mm as per above figure.

As we've discussed previously, however, I feel that strut and tie would be a better choice than sectional methods here based on your proportions.
I like to debate structural engineering theory -- a lot. If I challenge you on something, know that I'm doing so because I respect your opinion enough to either change it or adopt it.
