STEP:

Single Reinforcement: k < k’ Fcu = Strength of Concrete / Grade Formula: Calculate z:

Fy = Strength of Reinforcement 1. Nominal Cover, c As: d (0.5 +√0.25 – k / 0.9)
2. Effective Depth, d As’: d (0.5 +√0.25 – k’ / 0.9)
Fy: 3. Calculate k
Yield = 460 / 500 N/mm2 4. Calculate z Calculate As & As’:
Mild = 250 N/mm2 5. Calculate As / As’ Single:
6. Refer Table of Reinforcement As: M/ 0.87fyz
(Only Tension Reinforcement: As) 7. Checking
8. Sketching Double:

Fire Resistance (Nominal Cover) As’: (k – k’) fcubd2 / 0.95 fy(d – d’)

0.5 H: 20 mm As: k’fcubd2 / 0.95fyz + As’

1.0 H: 20 mm
1.5 H: 20 mm
2.0 H: 40 mm
Checking:
3.0 H: 60 mm
Effective depth, d As’ min= 0.24% bh
4.0 H: 70 mm
Double Reinforcement: k > k’ d = h – c – ό link – ό bar / 2 As min = 0.13% bh
Mild: 25 mm
(Tension and Compression d’ = c + ό link + ό bar / 2 As’ max = 4% bh
Reinforcement: As & As’)
M = Max Bending Moment (BMD)
k’ = 0.156 As’ max = 4% (250)(600) = 6000
Wind Load (wk) = 1.4 gk + 1.6 qk Calculate k: As min < As prov < As’ max
gk: Dead Load M / fcubd 2
As’ min < As prov < As’ max
qk: Live / Imposed Load
