Regular reinforcement (PRE-Stress)
Last modified by Fredrik Lagerström on 2021/03/01 12:56
Regular reinforcement is defined using a specific setup of parameters. It is also important to select the bar type to get the correct geometrical properties.
fyk: Characteristic yield stress [MPa]
fuk: Ultimate tensile strength [MPa]
Esk: Ultimate tensile strength [MPa]
εud: Elongation of reinforcement at maximum load [-]
εlimit: Limit elongation [-]
γs: Partial factor for steel materials [-]
Bar type
For regular reinforcement of Plain, Ribbed and Profiled types, it is possible to set a reinforcement diameter of 1-99mm in 1mm increments
