Verification of rectangular RC cross-section under N, M, V
Verification of rectangular RC cross-section under N, M, V
The cross-section is rectangular, unilaterally reinforced and loaded by the bending moment and normal compression force. The program verifies a reinforced concrete section using the method of limit deformation. The maximum allowable strain of concrete in compression is 0,002 - 0,0035. Compression reinforcement is not taken into account. Minimum eccentricity is applied:
The computed degree of reinforcement is checked using the following expressions:
| ||
where: |

| ||
| - for fy = 460 N/mm2 | |
| - for fy = 250 N/mm2 | |
Shear
First, the program computes the ultimate shear strength of concrete Vc.
where:
The νc values are for fcu above 25 N/mm2 multiplied by (fcu / 25)1/3
If the ultimate shear strength of concrete is exceeded, the ultimate shear strength Vmax is checked.
Next, the necessary reinforcement area is given by:
where:
