Verification of rectangular cross-section made from plain concrete
Verification of rectangular cross-section made from plain concrete
The cross-section is rectangular, loaded by the bending moment MSd, normal force NSd (applied in the cross-section centroid) and by the shear force VSd. The cross-section bearing capacity subjected to bending moment is given by:
The shear strength is provided by:
where:
Strength of concrete cross-section subject to the combination of bending moment and normal force is derived from the following expressions depending on the normal force eccentricity e:
As the greater of:
