Axial Load Capacity
Axial Load Capacity is defined as the maximum load along the direction of the drive train.
Symbol: Pu
Measurement: ForceUnit: N
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Capacity Reduction Factor
Capacity Reduction Factor is derived for reinforced concrete structures based on a reliability-based calibration of the Australian Concrete Structures Standard AS3600.
Symbol: Phi
Measurement: NAUnit: Unitless
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Area of Compressive Reinforcement
The Area of Compressive Reinforcement is the amount of steel required in the compression zone.
Symbol: A's
Measurement: AreaUnit: mm²
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Yield Strength of Reinforcing Steel
The Yield Strength of Reinforcing Steel is the maximum stress that can be applied before it begins to change shape permanently. This is an approximation of the elastic limit of the steel.
Symbol: fy
Measurement: StressUnit: MPa
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Eccentricity of Column
The Eccentricity of Column is the distance between the middle of the column's cross-section and the eccentric load.
Symbol: e
Measurement: LengthUnit: mm
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Distance from Compression to Tensile Reinforcement
Distance from Compression to Tensile Reinforcement is defined as the distance from extreme compression surface to the centroid of tensile reinforcement, in (mm).
Symbol: d
Measurement: LengthUnit: mm
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Distance from Compression to Centroid Reinforcment
Distance from Compression to Centroid Reinforcment is defined as the distance from extreme compression surface to the centroid of compression reinforcement, in (mm).
Symbol: d'
Measurement: LengthUnit: mm
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Width of Compression Face
Width of Compression Face is the measurement or extent of something from side to side.
Symbol: b
Measurement: LengthUnit: mm
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Effective Length of Column
The Effective Length of Column can be defined as the length of an equivalent pin-ended column having the same load-carrying capacity as the member under consideration.
Symbol: L
Measurement: LengthUnit: mm
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
28-Day Compressive Strength of Concrete
The 28-Day Compressive Strength of Concrete is the average compressive strength of concrete specimens that have been cured for 28 days.
Symbol: f'c
Measurement: StressUnit: MPa
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
