Materials, Coefficients, Notation
The following notation for material parameters is used:
fc | - | design compressive strength of concrete |
ft | - | design axial tensile strength of concrete |
f 'y | - | design compressive strength of steel bar |
fy | - | design tensile strength of steel bar |
The most common notation for geometrical parameters:
b | - | cross-section width |
h | - | cross-section depth |
h0 | - | effective depth of cross-section |
