length development for hook dowels vs. punching shear for footing thickness
length development for hook dowels vs. punching shear for footing thickness
(OP)
I just noticed that the footing thickness required for length development for hook in tension is sometimes so much higher than the required thickness based from punching shear.
Is this really reasonable?
PCA Notes example problem shows that we need to consider length development in tension when the footing is subjected to horizontal force, checking the shear (transfer) friction between the top of the footing and the base of the column resulting dowels under tension.
But I realized that is not the only case. When the column is also subjected to bending, column main bars (or dowels) are also in tension.
Any thoughts?
