Shear<br />

The design value of the shear force VEd at each cross-section shall satisfy (Ref.[1]):<br />

Where VRd is the design shear resistance of the cross-section.<br />

• Slender and non-slender sections<br />

<strong>Scaffolding</strong><br />

The formulas to be used in the shear check are dependent on the slenderness of the cross-section<br />

parts.<br />

For each part i the slenderness β is calculated as follows:<br />

⎛ h ⎞ w ⎛ xend<br />

− x<br />

β i = ⎜ = ⎜<br />

With: xend End position of plate i .<br />

xbeg Begin position of plate i.<br />

t Thickness of plate i.<br />

For each part i the slenderness β is then compared to the limit 39ε<br />
