REINFORCED CONCRETE DESIGN

REINFORCED CONCRETE DESIGN
- answer-angle defining the orientation of reinforcement

- answer-overall height of a beam cross section

- answer-reinforcement index

A - answer-depth of stress block
A = (β1)(c) =

A's - answer-the area of reinforcement on the compression side [in2]

Area of stirrups required for shear - answer-

Area of stirrups required for torsion - answer-

As - answer-the area of reinforcement on the tension side [in2]

As,min - answer-

Av - answer-Area of shear reinforcement

B - answer-the width of the compression zone

B (whitney stress block) - answer-width of compression zone

Be - answer-the width of the flange

Bw - answer-the width of the web

C (whitney stress block) - answer-cover dimension
Depth to neutral axis
C=

Compatibility torsion - answer-the torsion comes from the fixity of the
Connections (typically occurs in statically indeterminate structures)

Design torsion to be reduced to the cracking torque times the reduction
Factor

Compression steel force, Cs - answer-

Compression steel strain, Es' - answer-

Compression steel stress, fs' - answer-

Concrete compression force, Cc - answer-Cc = 0.85(β1)(fc')(b)(c)
