Modular Ratio Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Modular Ratio = (Modulus of Elasticity of Steel)/(Modulus of Elasticity of Concrete)
m = (E_s)/(E_c)
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Modular Ratio - Modular Ratio is the ratio of modulus of elasticity of steel and concrete. Concrete has varying moduli as it is not a perfectly elastic material. essentially, m= Es/Ec.
Modulus of Elasticity of Steel - (Measured in Megapascal) - Modulus of Elasticity of Steel or elastic modulus is the resistance of the structure or object from being deformed elastically when a stress is applied.
Modulus of Elasticity of Concrete - (Measured in Megapascal) - Modulus of Elasticity of Concrete is defined as the ratio of the applied stress to the corresponding strain.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Modulus of Elasticity of Steel: 1000 Kilopound Per Square Inch --> 6894.75729310432 Megapascal (Check conversion here)
Modulus of Elasticity of Concrete: 0.157 Megapascal --> 0.157 Megapascal No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

m = (E_s)/(E_c) --> (6894.75729310432)/(0.157)

Evaluating ... ...

m = 43915.6515484352

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

43915.6515484352 --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

43915.6515484352 ≈ 43915.65 <-- Modular Ratio

Stress in Steel with Tension Reinforcement only

LaTeX Go Tensile Stress in Steel = (Modular Ratio*Compressive Stress at Extreme Concrete Surface*(1-Ratio of Depth))/(Ratio of Depth)

Distance from Extreme Compression to Centroid given Steel Ratio

LaTeX Go Distance from Compression to Centroid Reinforcment = (Area of Tension Reinforcement)/(Beam Width*Steel Ratio)

Area of Tension Reinforcement given Steel Ratio

LaTeX Go Area of Tension Reinforcement = (Steel Ratio*Beam Width*Distance from Compression to Centroid Reinforcment)

Modular Ratio

LaTeX Go Modular Ratio = (Modulus of Elasticity of Steel)/(Modulus of Elasticity of Concrete)

Modular Ratio Formula

LaTeX Go

Modular Ratio = (Modulus of Elasticity of Steel)/(Modulus of Elasticity of Concrete)
m = (E_s)/(E_c)

Why Modular Ratio is used in Working Stress Method?

Working Stress Method takes into consideration the strain compatibility. This means the strain in steel is assumed to be equal to that of concrete. This will make the stress in steel to have a constant relationship with the concrete adjoining by means of a constant factor called as Modular Ratio.

what is Modular Ratio?

Modular ratio is the ratio of the elastic modulus of a particular material in a cross-section to the elastic modulus of the “base” or the reference material.

How to Calculate Modular Ratio?

Modular Ratio calculator uses Modular Ratio = (Modulus of Elasticity of Steel)/(Modulus of Elasticity of Concrete) to calculate the Modular Ratio, The Modular Ratio is defined as the ratio of the elastic modulus of a particular material in a cross-section to the elastic modulus of the “base” or the reference material. Modular Ratio is denoted by m symbol.
