link spacing, then the program will output an appropriate link size up to
size 16 mm.
The input data for the program BSHEAR are: the type of beam section,
the section details, the characteristic strengths of the materials and the
design ultimate shear force at the section considered. The output data from
the program BSHEAR are: the design shear stress v, the concrete design
shear stress Vc, the ratio of link area to link spacing Asvlsv, the size and
spacing of the links required and the details of the bent-up bars, if they are
used.

The complete listing of the above program (with commentary), together
with the floppy disks, are obtainable from the Publishers. See Section
12.1(a) and Appendix 1.
12.6(b) Program BSHTOR ( = Beam SHear and
TORsion)
Figure 12.6-2 shows the Header of the program BSHTOR, which designs
the shear and torsion reinforcement for a solid rectangular beam section,
as described in Sections 6.4, 6.10(a) and 6.11. The program is of course
applicable to the web of a flanged beam. For simplicity, the program does
not consider a combination of bent-up bars and links as shear reinforcement
(compare with (1) of Section 12.6(a)), but allows the user to choose
the size or spacing of links as in (2) of Section 12.6(a).
