Reinforcement

The tab "Reinforcement" is designed to provide reinforcement and to check whether it is enough to carry external forces. For columns elements two sided or all sided reinforcement can be chosen. Limit moment value and quantity of required reinforcement are also represented. The tooltips of Md values display bending moment calculation rules. The tooltips of Check data provide an additional information about capacity and detailing checks.
