Depth of Equivalent Rectangular Compressive Stress Distribution Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Depth of Rectangular Stress Distribution = ((Area of Steel Required-Area of Compression Reinforcement)*Yield Strength of Steel)/(28 Day Compressive Strength of Concrete*Beam Width)
a = ((A_{steel required}-A_s')*fy_steel)/(f_c*b)
This formula uses 6 Variables

Variables Used

Depth of Rectangular Stress Distribution - (Measured in Meter) - Depth of Rectangular Stress Distribution is the distance from extreme fiber to rectangular stress distribution in compression zone.
Area of Steel Required - (Measured in Square Meter) - Area of steel required is the amount of steel required for resisting the shear or diagonal stress as stirrups.
Area of Compression Reinforcement - (Measured in Square Meter) - Area of Compression Reinforcement is the amount of steel required in the compression zone.
Yield Strength of Steel - (Measured in Pascal) - Yield Strength of Steel is the level of stress that corresponds to the yield point.
28 Day Compressive Strength of Concrete - (Measured in Pascal) - 28 Day Compressive Strength of Concrete is defined as the strength of the concrete after 28 days of using it.
Beam Width - (Measured in Meter) - Beam Width is defined as the shortest/least measurement of the beam.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Area of Steel Required: 35 Square Millimeter --> 3.5E-05 Square Meter (Check conversion here)
Area of Compression Reinforcement: 20 Square Millimeter --> 2E-05 Square Meter (Check conversion here)
Yield Strength of Steel: 250 Megapascal --> 250000000 Pascal (Check conversion here)
28 Day Compressive Strength of Concrete: 15 Megapascal --> 15000000 Pascal (Check conversion here)
Beam Width: 26.5 Millimeter --> 0.0265 Meter (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

a = ((A_{steel required}-A_s')*fy_steel)/(f_c*b) --> ((3.5E-05-2E-05)*250000000)/(15000000*0.0265)

Evaluating ... ...

a = 0.00943396226415094

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.00943396226415094 Meter -->9.43396226415094 Millimeter (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

9.43396226415094 ≈ 9.433962 Millimeter <-- Depth of Rectangular Stress Distribution

What is Depth of Equivalent Rectangular Compressive Stress Distribution?

Generally, the Evaluation of Flexural Strength is calculated by parabolic stress distribution. For more simpler approach, in 1930s, Whitney proposed an equivalent rectangular stress distribution to replace the original. In that distribution, average 0.85fc', (0.85* characteristic compressive strength), is used with a rectangle of depth a, which is termed as depth of equivalent rectangular tress distribution.

How to Calculate Depth of Equivalent Rectangular Compressive Stress Distribution?

Depth of Equivalent Rectangular Compressive Stress Distribution calculator uses Depth of Rectangular Stress Distribution = ((Area of Steel Required-Area of Compression Reinforcement)*Yield Strength of Steel)/(28 Day Compressive Strength of Concrete*Beam Width) to calculate the Depth of Rectangular Stress Distribution, The Depth of Equivalent Rectangular Compressive Stress Distribution is defined as the parameters area of tension reinforcement,area of compression reinforcement,compressive strength of concrete and width of beam section. Depth of Rectangular Stress Distribution is denoted by a symbol.

How to calculate Depth of Equivalent Rectangular Compressive Stress Distribution using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Depth of Equivalent Rectangular Compressive Stress Distribution, enter Area of Steel Required (A_{steel required}), Area of Compression Reinforcement (A_s'), Yield Strength of Steel (fy_steel), 28 Day Compressive Strength of Concrete (f_c) & Beam Width (b) and hit the calculate button.
