The lateral confining pressure may be found by considering the half body
confined by a spiral or circular hoop. If the uniform hoop tension
developed by the transverse steel at yield exerts a uniform lateral stress on
the concrete core, then equilibrium of forces requires that

where fyh = yield strength of the transverse reinforcement; Asp = area of
transverse reinforcement bar; / , = lateral confining pressure on concrete
and s = center to center spacing or pitch of spiral or circular hoop.
Now if ps = ratio of the volume of transverse confining steel to the
volume of confined concrete core, then
