Reinforcement

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.
