2 Theoretical Background

5.1 Required Reinforcement Total

The maximum reinforcement areas of all analyzed surfaces are output, which are determined from the internal forces of the selected load cases, load combinations, and result combinations for the ultimate limit state design.

Surface No.

This column shows the numbers of the surfaces where the governing points are located.

Punkt Nr.

Point No.
In these FE nodes or grid points, the greatest required reinforcement for each position and direction has been determined. The type of the reinforcement is indicated in column E, Symbol.

The FE mesh nodes M are generated automatically. In contrast to this, the grid points G can be controlled in RFEM, since user-defined result grids are possible for surfaces. The function is described in chapter 8.13 of the RFEM manual.

Point-Coordinates X/Y/Z

The three columns show the coordinates of the respective governing FE nodes or grid points.

Symbol

Column E indicates the type of the reinforcement. For the four (or six) longitudinal reinforcements, it respectively shows the direction (1, 2, and possibly 3) and the surface side (top and bottom).

The reinforcement directions were specified in window 1.4 Reinforcement in the Reinforcement Layout tab (see chapter 3.4.2).

Note

Obere und Untere Lage
The top reinforcement is located on the surface side in the direction of the negative local surface axis z (-z), the bottom reinforcement accordingly in the direction of the positive z-axis (+z). Figure 3.28 shows the axis systems of the surfaces.


The shear reinforcement is designated as asw.

Erforderliche Bewehrung

This column displays the reinforcement areas that are required for the ultimate limit state design.

Grundbewehrung

This column shows the user-defined basic reinforcement specified in the Longitudinal Reinforcement tab of window 1.4 Reinforcement (see chapter 3.4.3).

Zusatzbewehrung

If you only perform the ultimate limit state design, the Required column displays the difference between the required reinforcement (column F) and the provided basic reinforcement (column G).


Wurden auch die Nachweise im Grenzzustand der Gebrauchstauglichkeit geführt, so lassen sich hier die Bewehrungsquerschnitte ablesen, die mit den Vorgaben in Maske 1.4 Bewehrung, Register Längsbewehrung (siehe Kapitel 3.4.3) zur Erfüllung der Gebrauchstauglichkeitsnachweise benötigt werden.

The Provided column shows the reinforcement that is available as additional reinforcement for the serviceability limit state design according to the specifications in the Longitudinal Reinforcement tab of window 1.4 Reinforcement.

Hinweis

The final column indicates non-designable situations or notes referring to design issues. The numbers are clarified in the status bar.
