Flanged section in flexure - Positive moment
Design bending moment; M = 500 kNm
Distance between points of zero moment; L0 = 6800 mm
Effective flange width; beff = min(0.2 ´ l0 + b, bf) = 1000 mm
Depth to tension reinforcement; d = h - cnom_b - fv - fbot / 2 = 636 mm
Percentage redistribution; mr = 0 %
Redistribution ratio; bb = min(1 - mr, 1) = 1.000
K = M / (beff ´ d2 ´ fcu) = 0.025
K' = 0.156 = 0.156
K' > K - No compression reinforcement is required
Lever arm; z = min(d ´ (0.5 + (0.25 - K / 0.9)0.5), 0.95 ´ d) = 604 mm
Depth of neutral axis; x = (d - z) / 0.45 = 71 mm
Area of tension reinforcement required; As,req = M / (0.87 ´ fy ´ z) = 1902 mm2
Tension reinforcement provided; 4 ´ 32f bars

Area of tension reinforcement provided; As,prov = 3217 mm2
Minimum area of reinforcement; As,min = 0.0013 ´ b ´ h = 364 mm2
Maximum area of reinforcement; As,max = 0.04 ´ b ´ d = 10176 mm2
PASS - Area of reinforcement provided is greater than area of reinforcement required
Rectangular section in shear
Design shear force ; V = 600 kN
Design shear stress; v = V / (b ´ d) = 2.358 N/mm2
Design concrete shear stress; vc = 0.79 ´ min(3,[100 ´ As,prov / (b ´ d)]1/3) ´ max(1, (400 /d)1/4) ´ (min(fcu,

vc = 0.799 N/mm2
Allowable design shear stress; vmax = min(0.8 N/mm2 ´ (fcu/1 N/mm2)0.5, 5 N/mm2) = 5.000 N/mm2
PASS - Design shear stress is less than maximum allowable
Value of v from Table 3.7; (vc + 0.4 N/mm2) < v < vmax
Design shear resistance required; vs = max(v - vc, 0.4 N/mm2) = 1.559 N/mm2
Area of shear reinforcement required; Asv,req = vs ´ b / (0.87 ´ fyv) = 1434 mm2/m
Shear reinforcement provided; 2 ´ 13f legs at 300 c/c
Area of shear reinforcement provided; Asv,prov = 885 mm2/m
FAIL - Area of shear reinforcement provided is less than the minimum required
Maximum longitudinal spacing; svl,max = 0.75 ´ d = 477 mm
PASS - Longitudinal spacing of shear reinforcement provided is less than maximum
Spacing of reinforcement (cl 3.12.11)
Actual distance between bars in tension; s = (b - 2 ´ (cnom_s + fv + fbot/2)) /(Nbot - 1) - fbot = 59 mm
Minimum distance between bars in tension (cl 3.12.11.1)
Minimum distance between bars in tension; smin = hagg + 5 mm = 25 mm
PASS - Satisfies the minimum spacing criteria
Maximum distance between bars in tension (cl 3.12.11.2)
Design service stress; fs = (2 ´ fy ´ As,req) / (3 ´ As,prov ´ bb) = 197.1 N/mm2
Maximum distance between bars in tension; smax = min(47000 N/mm / fs, 300 mm) = 238 mm
PASS - Satisfies the maximum spacing criteria
