Use CP curvature = ultimate curvature

image-20250113-070925.pngImage Added

When this option is selected, the ultimate strain of the concrete and reinforcement material is used to calculate the plastic rotation limit values for performance levels.

Caltrans idealized model

image-20240313-071358.png

If marked, the Moment-Curvature plot is idealized. It is a moment curvature relationship obtained by drawing a horizontal line that intersects with an inclined line passing over the moment of yield and will equalize the areas between the moment curvature graph.

Stop when a fiber reaches ultimate stress

If checked, the graphic ends when the graphic fiber reaches its highest stress.

Use T-section

image-20240312-143036.png

If the option is selected, t-section is used.

Extra as in flange

image-20240313-071806.png

It is the extra reinforcement area to be taken into account in the t-section due to the slab reinforcement. The reinforcement area value written here is added to the existing beam reinforcement area.

DGT

Section cells and rebars are displayed according to the concrete and rebar material model criteria defined in TS500.

SDGTSGDT

The section cells and rebars are displayed according to the ŞGDT SGDT criteria for the concrete and rebar material model defined in TBDY.

Point count

It is used to determine how many points the moment curvature graph consists of.

Angle

It shows the neutral axis angle from which the moment curvature relationship is obtained. It is indicated with a red arrow in the image above.

Axial force

It shows under which axial force the moment curvature relationship is drawn.

End I

Shows the arrangement of fibers and reabers at the i-end of the beam.

End J

Shows the fiber and rebar arrangement at the j end of the beam.

Compression limit

The determined material model is the largest axial pressure force that the section can take in the moment-normal force interaction.

Tension limit

The determined material model is the largest axial tensile force that the section can take in the moment-normal force interaction.

View stress/strain contours

It shows the stress and strain state in section in color format at each step of the moment curvature relationship.

Generate report

Creates a detailed report of moment-curvature.
