STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Excess Shear given Stirrup Leg Area for Bars Bent: 4785 Newton per Square Meter --> 4785 Pascal (Check conversion here)
Stirrup Spacing: 50.1 Millimeter --> 0.0501 Meter (Check conversion here)
Allowable Stress in Stirrup Steel: 35 Megapascal --> 35000000 Pascal (Check conversion here)
Compression to Centroid Reinforcement Distance: 10.1 Millimeter --> 0.0101 Meter (Check conversion here)
Angle at which Stirrup is Inclined: 30 Degree --> 0.5235987755982 Radian (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

A_v = (V'_LAB*s)/(f_v*d'*(cos(α)+sin(α))) --> (4785*0.0501)/(35000000*0.0101*(cos(0.5235987755982)+sin(0.5235987755982)))

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.00049644538054392 Square Meter -->496.44538054392 Square Millimeter (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

496.44538054392 ≈ 496.4454 Square Millimeter <-- Stirrup Area
