Introduction
Requirements for detailing provisions of reinforced concrete members are another step of proper design respecting safety, serviceability and durability of structure.
Generally SCIA Engineer distinguishes three main types of member within their detailing provisions:
- Beam - verification of longitudinal and shear reinforcement
- Column - verification of main and transverse reinforcement
- Beam slab - verification of longitudinal reinforcement only
The following table shows which checks of detailing provisions are performed for particular member type:
| Member type |
longitudinal (main) |
shear (transverse) |
|---|---|---|
| Beam |
8.2(2) - Minimal clear spacing of bars 9.2.1.1(1) - Minimal area of longitudinal reinforcement 9.2.1.1(3) - Maximal area of longitudinal reinforcement 9.2.3(4) - Maximal centre-to-centre bar distance based on torsion Code-Independent - Maximal clear spacing |
9.2.2(5) - Minimal percentage of shear reinforcement 9.2.2(6) - Maximal longitudinal spacing of stirrups (shear) 9.2.2(8) - Maximal transverse spacing of stirrups (shear) 9.2.3(3) - Maximal longitudinal spacing of stirrups (torsion) |
| Column |
8.2(2) - Minimal clear spacing of bars 9.5.2(1) - Minimal bar diameter of longitudinal reinforcement 9.5.2(2) - Minimal area of longitudinal reinforcement 9.5.2(3) - Maximal area of longitudinal reinforcement 9.5.2(4) - Minimal number of longitudinal reinforcement bars |
9.2.3(3) - Maximal longitudinal spacing of stirrups (torsion) 9.5.3(1) - Minimal diameter of transverse reinforcement 9.5.3(3) - Maximal longitudinal spacing of transverse reinforcement |
| Beam Slab |
8.2(2) - Minimal clear spacing of bars 9.3.1.1(3) - Maximal bar distance of longitudinal reinforcement |
