Reinforcement calculation using plate stress output from staad by the method of
Wood and Armer
For top reinforcements
Mx1 = Mx + Abs(Mxy) My1 = My + Abs(Mxy) Mx2 = Mx + Abx(Mxy2/My) My2 = My + Abs(Mxy2/Mx) If both Mx1 and My1 are positive, Mxd = Mx1 and Myd = My1 If both Mx1 and My1 are negative, Mxd = 0, Myd = 0 If Mx1 is positive and My1 is negative, Mxd = Mx2, Myd = 0 If Mx1 is negative and My1 is positive, Mxd = 0, Myd = My2
For bottom reinforcements
Mx1 = Mx - Abs(Mxy) My1 = My - Abs(Mxy) Mx2 = Mx - Abx(Mxy2/My) My2 = My - Abs(Mxy2/Mx) If both Mx1 and My1 are positive, Mxd = 0 and Myd = 0 If both Mx1 and My1 are negative, Mxd = Mx1, Myd = My1 If Mx1 is positive and My1 is negative, Mxd = 0, Myd = My2 If Mx1 is negative and My1 is positive, Mxd = Mx2, Myd = 0
