When lambda <= 0.70, Q=1
Q = 1.00
Fcrmin =1/omega * Fcr = 0.60 * 36.00 * 1.00 = 21.60 ksi

Using Eq. 9-6

Vc = 1/omega * Vn = 1/omega * 0.60 * Fy * Ag = 0.67 * 0.60 * 36.00 * 5.44 = 78.30 kips
Interaction due to moment and shear, (Vr/Vc)^2 + (Mr/Mc)^2 <= 1.0
(Vr/Vc)^2 + (Mr/Mc)^2 = (23.00 / 78.30)^2 + (142.94 / 425.76)^2 = 0.20 <= 1  (OK)
