  • Only supports the following geometry types: Inverted Ts, Spandrels, L Beams

  • Loads are assumed to be located at the center of the ledge.

  • Loads assumed to be centered on ledge.

  • If using the 8th edition of the PCI Design Handbook and transverse reinforcement is not input by the user, the Vn used to compute R is assumed such that the factored shear capacity is not below the required demand. This in tern sets a maximum value of R (from shear) to be 0.75. For a more accurate analysis shear reinforcement must be input.
