Recently, I have started working on Leap Bridge Concrete V 17.01.01.11 , and we start questioning whether the hanger reinforcement check has been considered or not on this version, AASHTO 5.13.2.5.5. I couldn't see anywhere checking the combination of shear and torsion together to count for the higher effect.
Thank you
Shear Design for Hanger reinforcement is done as per 5.13.2.5.5.
Design procedure for shear and torsion remains same as it is for multicolumn pier using LRFD.
