The following stress-strain relations are defined for confined and unconfined concrete to be used in the evaluation according to deformation with Nonlinear Methods , when no other model is selected (Figure 5A.1) .
(a) In confined concrete, the concrete compressive stress f c is given by the equation in Equation (5A.1) as a function of the pressure strain ε c :
