where
k1 = 0.4
k2 = 0.6 + 0.0014/ cu2 = 0.6 + 0.0014/0.0035 = 1
xu = depth to NA after redistribution
xu = d ( - 0.4)
Therefore there are limits on K and
this limit is denoted K

K
The limiting value for K (denoted K) can be calculated as follows:

M = 0.453 fck b x z

K = M / (fck b d 2)
K = M /(b d2 fck)
Some engineers advocate taking x/d < 0.45, and K < 0.168. It is often
considered good practice to limit the depth of the neutral axis to avoid
over-reinforcement to ensure a ductile failure. This is not an EC2
requirement and is not accepted by all engineers (but is by TCC).

Shear in Beams
Shear
There are three approaches to designing for shear:
When shear reinforcement is not required e.g. slabs
Shear check uses VRd,c
Shear in Beams
Shear design is different from BS8110. EC2 uses the variable strut
method to check a member with shear reinforcement.

Beams (9.2)
Tension reinforcement in a flanged beam at
supports should be spread over the effective width
(see 5.3.2.1)
Curtailment (9.2.1.3)
(1) Sufficient reinforcement should be provided at all sections to resist the
envelope of the acting tensile force, including the effect of inclined cracks
in webs and flanges.
(2) For members with shear reinforcement the additional tensile force, Ftd,
should be calculated according to 6.2.3 (7). For members without shear
reinforcement Ftd may be estimated by shifting the moment curve a
distance al = d according to 6.2.2 (5). This "shift rule may also be used
as an alternative for members with shear reinforcement, where:
