Concrete cover

Image Added

It is the distance from the center of gravity of the reinforcement to the outer face of the concrete.

Min. tensile reinforcement pursuit

Image Added

In the tensile zone, give the minimum percentage value to be used in the reinforcement calculation. The entered value is multiplied by the cross-sectional area and the reinforcement selection is made in a way that is not less than the result.

Min. tensile reinforcement range

Image Added

In the tensile zone, give the smallest possible distance between two reinforcement bars. This value is taken into consideration in the selection of reinforcement.

Max. tensile reinforcement range

Image Added

In the tensile zone, give the value of the greatest possible distance between two rebars. This value is taken into consideration in the selection of reinforcement.

Min. transverse reinforcement pursuit

Image Added

Give the minimum percentage value to be used in horizontal reinforcements. The entered value is multiplied by the cross-sectional area and the reinforcement selection is made in a way that is not less than the result.

Max. transverse reinforcement range

Image Added

Give the maximum possible distance between two reinforcement bars to be used in horizontal reinforcements. This value is taken into consideration in the selection of reinforcement.

Min. pressure reinforcement pursuit

Image Added

In the pressure zone, give the minimum percentage value to be used in reinforcement calculation. The entered value is multiplied by the cross-sectional area and the reinforcement selection is made in a way that is not less than the result.

Min. pressure reinforcement range

Image Added

Give the smallest possible distance between two reinforcing bars in the pressure zone. This value is taken into account in the selection of reinforcement.

Max. pressure reinforcement range

Image Added

Give the maximum possible distance between two reinforcing bars in the pressure zone. This value is taken into consideration in the selection of reinforcement.
