v(Tu) = Tu*ph/(fAoh^2)

(5.8.2.9-1)

vu = v(Vu)+v(Tu)

(5.8.3.6.2-3) for box sections

vu = sqrt(v(Vu)^2+v(Tu)^2)

(5.8.3.6.2-4) for other sections

Determine strain in reinforcement on tension side of the member:

ex = (Mu/dv + 0.5Nu +0.5(Vu(Tu)-Vp)*cotq - Aps*fpo)/2(EsAs+EpAps) <= 0.002


(5.8.3.4.2-1)

If ex < 0 (compression) then ex = ex*(EpAps+EsAs)/(EcAc+EpAps+EsAs)

ex <= 0.001
Vu(Tu) = SQRT[Vu^2+(0.9ph*Tu/(2Ao))^2]
Mu >= Vu*dv
