Short Cantilevers
(Brackets or Corbels)
Shear Friction and Corbels Reinforced Concrete Design (5)
Definitions
Short cantilevers are
defined by the Egyptian
Code as cantilevers whose
shear span to depth ratio
(a/d) is 1.0 or less. In
corbels, a large horizontal
force develops due to
shrinkage and creep of the
supported elements such
as beam that are
connected to the corbels.
It is advisable to consider
a minimum horizontal
force, Nu=0.2Qu .

Structural Action
The structural action of short cantilevers can be idealized as a
truss made up of a compression strut ant a tension tie. The
inclination of strut determines the tension in the tie be a simple
force polygon. A direct shear failure could be possible mode of
failure along the face of column.
