Two-Way Slab Reinforcement Limits per ACI 318-19 with ideCAD

How does ideCAD control Two-Way slab reinforcement limits according to ACI 318-19?

Minimum area of flexural reinforcement, A_s,min is controlled and reported automatically.

The ratio of deformed shrinkage and temperature reinforcement area to gross concrete area are greater than or equal to 0.0018. It’s controlled automatically.

Symbols

A_g = gross area of concrete section, in.²
A_s,min = minimum area of flexural reinforcement in.²

Minimum flexural reinforcement in nonprestressed slabs

A minimum area of flexural reinforcement is satisfied near the slab's tension face in the span's direction.

A_{s, min}=0.0018A_g
