Verification of rectangular cross-sections made from plain concrete
Verification of rectangular cross-sections made from plain concrete
The cross-section is rectangular, loaded by the bending moment M, normal force N (applied in the cross-section centroid) and by the shear force V.
Strength of concrete cross-section subject to the combination of bending moment and normal force with eccentricity e is derived from the following expressions:
The shear strength is provided by:
where: | νc | - | is the design value of shear stress in concrete for degree of longitudinal reinforcement ρ = 0 (see: Verification of spread footing for punching shear). |
