Concrete Design for RSTAB 9 | Columns

You can design reinforced concrete compression members with minimum effort in the Concrete Design add-on. Using this add-on, the standards-based equivalent member method (for example, nominal curvature method) is applied for rectangular or circular cross-sections.

You know for sure: The standards stipulate that for components subjected to compression, the deformations must be taken into account when determining the internal forces (second-order analysis). This applies if the linear elastically determined internal forces are increased due to the deformation by more than the allowable limit value (for example, 10 % according to EN 1992‑1‑1). If you want to avoid a nonlinear calculation that is difficult to check, you can determine the internal forces affected by deformation in a simplified way using a "model column." The program transfers the selected members into such model columns according to user specifications.

Concrete Design | Columns | Input

The program does a lot of work for you. The members to be designed are directly imported from RFEM/RSTAB.

You can easily define constructional properties of columns as well as other details for determining the required longitudinal and shear reinforcement. In this case, you can manually define the effective length factor ß or import it from the Structure Stability add-on.

Concrete Design | Columns | Design/Results

Do you want to perform the bending failure design? To do this, analyze the governing locations of the column for axial forces and moments. For the shear resistance design, you can also consider the locations with extreme values of shear forces. During the calculation, you determine whether a standard design is sufficient or whether the column with the moments has to be designed according to the second-order theory. You can then determine these moments using the previously entered specifications. The calculation is divided into three parts:

Load-independent calculation steps
Iterative determination of governing loading taking into account a varying required reinforcement
Safety determination of all acting internal forces, including the designed reinforcement

After a successful calculation, the results are displayed in clearly arranged tables. Each intermediate value is absolutely traceable, making the design checks transparent.
