Cross calculation MRd capacity

The General part is used for setting the particular Cross calculation MRd capacity parameters.

 

General options:

ParameterUnitDescription
Section name-Name of cross sections (parametric and standard) are supported by EN 1992-1-1 and related national annexes such as NEN-EN 1992-1-1. Items listed in a Section name depend on chosen code or/and national annex
Concrete-Concrete material name is using for code check calculation and supported by EN 1992-1-1#3.1 and related national annexes such as NEN-EN 1992-1-1#3.1. Items listed in a Concrete drop-down list depend on chosen code or/and national annex
Structural member-Structural member means beam or slab

 

Reinforcement:

ParameterUnitDescription
Steel-Reinforcement steel code
Nets-Include/Exclude reinforcement nets
Trans. reinfmm

Diameter of the stirrups. Conventional sign of stirrups diameter:

Conventional sign of stirrups diameter
Cover top/bottom/sidemm

Cover properties

Exposure class top

Exposure class bottom

-Identification of the relevant exposure classes is one of the building blocks used to determine the concrete requirements and reinforcement cover. For more details see Exposure classes
Cement class-Cement class means S - slow early strength, N - normal early strength, R - rapid early strength

 

Forces:

The Axial force Nc,Ed directed perpendicular to the cross section of the beam/slab. Virtual model of the N'Ed force in the 3D-object:

The NEd normal force is accepted as tension if NEd>0. If NEd<0 then it is considered the compression is established.
