Reinforcement

Plate reinforcement dialog

General

Steel Grade

The steel grade of the basic and additional reinforcement.

Creep Coefficient

The creep coefficient of concrete. By this coefficient the effective creep coefficient is calculated according to EN 1992-1-1 art. 5.8.4.

You can insert the creep coefficient yourself or you can have it calculated. See Creep. When the creep coefficient is calculated, a detailed calculation according to EN 1992-1-1 B.1 is displayed in the output as well.

Granule Diameter

The nominal granule diameter of concrete.

Cover

Environmental Class

The environmental or exposure class is used for the determination of the required cover. See Exposure classes

Concrete Surface

Can be checked, can not be checked or finished.

delta_Cdev

Execution tolerance of the concrete cover in mm.

Cover

Concrete cover top / bottom in mm.

Reinforcement

Reinforcement in X- and Y-direction

Basic reinforcement top/bottom

Syntax 1: <amount>x<diameter> [+<amount>x<diameter>...]

Syntax 2: <diameter>-<ctc distance> [+<diameter>-<ctc distance>...]

Syntax 3: <mm2> [ / <diameter>]

Additional Reinforcement Diameters

The diameters by which the additional reinforcement is designed.

Layers

Setting which reinforcement is in the first layer.

Angle Compression Strut

Shear reinforcement: Angle compression strut in degrees.
