Symbols

dagg = Nominal maximum size of coarse aggregate, in.
db = nominal diameter of bar, wire, or prestressing strand, in
Ach = cross-sectional area of a member measured to the outside edges of transverse reinforcement, in.2
f'c = specified comprehensive strength of concrete, psi
fyt = specified yield strength of transverse reinforcement, psi
Ag = gross area of concrete section, in.2 For a hollow section, Ag is the area of the concrete only and does not include the area of the void(s)
ρs = ratio of volume of spiral reinforcement to total of core confined by the sprial, measured out-to-out of spirals
