I downloaded the spreadsheet a few minutes ago. After taking a quick cursory review, I discovered that cells D191 and D192 calculate wrong shear stress. Lower actuals are being reported.
Area of web resisting shear (should be as follows:
Strong axes: Aw = 2 * t *(d - 2 * t)
Weak axes: Aw = 2 * t * (b – 2 * t)
Please let me know if you agree.
