In order to work out an effective shear reinforcement method for reinforced concrete footings, experimental studies have been conducted using specimens of reinforced concrete beams and footings which are shear-reinforced with stirrups.

In this report a method of calculating the shear strength of such footings is proposed, based on the results of studies.
