Development Length for simple Support Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Development Length = (Computed Flexural Strength/Applied Shear at Section)+(Additional Embedment Length)
Ld = (Mn/Vu)+(La)
This formula uses 4 Variables
Variables Used
Development Length - (Measured in Millimeter) - Development Length is the amount of reinforcement or bar length needed to be embedded into the column to establish the desired bond strength between the concrete and steel.
Computed Flexural Strength - (Measured in Megapascal) - Computed Flexural Strength is defined as the stress in a material just before it yields in a flexure test with all reinforcing steel at section stressed to fy.
Applied Shear at Section - (Measured in Megapascal) - Applied Shear at Section of a reinforced concrete beam is a result of the dowel force, aggregate interlock, and shear compression force.
Additional Embedment Length - (Measured in Millimeter) - Additional Embedment Length is the length of embedded steel reinforcement provided beyond a critical section, beyond inflection point or center of support.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Computed Flexural Strength: 10.02 Megapascal --> 10.02 Megapascal No Conversion Required
Applied Shear at Section: 33.4 Newton per Square Millimeter --> 33.4 Megapascal (Check conversion here)
Additional Embedment Length: 100 Millimeter --> 100 Millimeter No Conversion Required
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
Ld = (Mn/Vu)+(La) --> (10.02/33.4)+(100)
Evaluating ... ...
Ld = 100.3
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
0.1003 Meter -->100.3 Millimeter (Check conversion here)
FINAL ANSWER
100.3 Millimeter <-- Development Length
(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)
