Dimensioning

The frame "Dimensioning" allows for the design and verification of the reinforcement of the structure concrete cover. The upper part of the frame serves to choose whether the vertical or horizontal reinforcement and its location will be verified. The program then determines internal forces developed on the selected section.

The table in the bottom part of the frame serves to specify locations for the verification of the designed reinforcement depending on the inputted standard for dimensioning of steel-reinforced concrete structures (the standard is specified in the frame "Analysis methods"). A cross-section is loaded by the bending moment in a given point. An amount of the tensile reinforcement in the cross-section is inputted. If the moment is negative, the designed reinforcement is placed at the structure front face and if it is negative, then at the structure back face.
