R608.7.2.2.1 Horizontal Shear Reinforcement

Residential Code 2015 of Utah > 6 Wall Construction > R608 Exterior Concrete Wall Construction > R608.7 Solid Walls for Resistance to Lateral Forces > R608.7.2 Solid Wall Segments > R608.7.2.2 Reinforcement in Solid Wall Segments > R608.7.2.2.1 Horizontal Shear Reinforcement
JUMP TO FULL CODE CHAPTER
Where reduction factors for design strength, R3, from Table R608.7(4) based on horizontal and vertical shear reinforcement being provided are used, solid wall segments shall have horizontal reinforcement consisting of minimum No. 4 bars. Horizontal shear reinforcement shall be the same grade of steel required for the vertical reinforcement at the ends of solid wall segments by Section R608.7.2.2.2.

The spacing of horizontal reinforcement shall not exceed the smaller of one-half the length of the solid wall segment, minus 2 inches (51 mm), and 18 inches (457 mm). Horizontal shear reinforcement shall terminate in accordance with Section R608.6.4.
