Tauc Function

This function calculates the design tensile strength (TAUC) of concrete based on the characteristic compressive strength (FCK) and the percentage of longitudinal reinforcement (PT). It first calculates a beta value and clamps it between 0 and 1, then uses that along with FCK to calculate TAUC through a formula.

Function TAUC(FCK As Double, PT As Double) As Double

If BETA = 0.8 * FCK / (6.89 * PT) > 1 Then

BETA = 1

Else

BETA = 0.8 * FCK / (6.89 * PT)

End If

TAUC = 0.85 * Sqr(0.8 * FCK) * (Sqr(1 + 5 * BETA) - 1) / (6 * BETA)

End Function
