The program is calculating the concrete edge failure in the direction perpendicular to the shear force only. So it outputs 4.3 Concrete edge failure in direction y- when my load is in the x direction. So I switch the load to the y direction and it calculated this again but in the direction x-. This causes the "psi parallel V" factor to be 2. Should the program calculate both x and y directions with "psi parallel V" to equal 2 and 1?
Hi Gustavo,
Please see this previous Ask Hilti response.
