Shear Toward Free Edge              
Using anchor reinforcement option is selected to resist the concrete breakout.
Engineer has to provide hor. anchor reinforcement such as hor. hair pin or enclosed stirrup around the shear key pocket to resist the concrete breakout. When the non-enclosed or open hor. rebar such as hair pin is used, engineer has to ensure that the rebar has adequate development length ld or ldh on both sides of failure plane as shown in CSA A23.3-14 Figure D.17A
 
* For enclosed tie, at hook location the tie cannot develop full yield strength fy . Use the pullout resistance in
    tension of a single hooked bolt as per CSA A23.3-14  Eq D.17 as the max force can be developed at hook Th
* Assume 100% of hor. tie bars can develop full yield strength
Total number of hor tie bar  n = nleg (leg) x nlay (layer) = 12.0
