How to Calculate Tension Reinforcement Area for Axial-Load Capacity of Short Rectangular Members?
Tension Reinforcement Area for Axial-Load Capacity of Short Rectangular Members calculator uses Area of Tension Reinforcement = ((0.85*28-Day Compressive Strength of Concrete*Width of Compression Face*Depth Rectangular Compressive Stress)+(Area of Compressive Reinforcement*Yield Strength of Reinforcing Steel)-(Axial Load Capacity/Resistance Factor))/Steel Tensile Stress to calculate the Area of Tension Reinforcement, The Tension Reinforcement Area for Axial-Load Capacity of Short Rectangular Members is defined as the area of reinforcement within an effective tension area of concrete. The effective tension area is that area of the concrete cross-section which will crack due to the tension developed in bending. Area of Tension Reinforcement is denoted by As symbol.
How to calculate Tension Reinforcement Area for Axial-Load Capacity of Short Rectangular Members using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Tension Reinforcement Area for Axial-Load Capacity of Short Rectangular Members, enter 28-Day Compressive Strength of Concrete (f'c), Width of Compression Face (b), Depth Rectangular Compressive Stress (a), Area of Compressive Reinforcement (A's), Yield Strength of Reinforcing Steel (fy), Axial Load Capacity (Pu), Resistance Factor (Φ) & Steel Tensile Stress (fs) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Tension Reinforcement Area for Axial-Load Capacity of Short Rectangular Members calculation can be explained with given input values -> 2.4E+7 = ((0.85*55000000*0.005*0.0105)+(2E-05*250000000)-(680/0.85))/280000000.
