    This document provides information on calculating the effective axial stiffness of a concrete section according to ACI 224.2R-92. It includes input data for a concrete section with a specified compressive strength, thickness, width, reinforcement, and axial tension force. The output data includes calculations of the concrete tensile strength, modular ratio, reinforcement ratio, cracking load, gross area, effective area, and effective stiffness. It concludes that the effective concrete axial stiffness is 0.15 of the gross axial stiffness.

    Effective Axial Stiffness of Concrete Section


    According to ACI 224.2R-92, Section 4.1
    INPUT DATA:
    Concrete fc`= 30 MPa
    Section Thickness = 220 mm
    Section width = 1000 mm
    Section total RFT = 1356 mm2
    Axial tension force = 500 kN
    Calculate using: CEB approach

    OUTPUT DATA:
    Concrete tensile strength ft`= 1.81 MPa Eq. (3.2)
    Modular ratio (n) = 7.8
    Reinforcement ratio (r) = 0.62%
    Cracking load (Pcr) = 414 kN Eq. (2.1)
    Gross area (Ag) = 229,179 mm 2

    Effective area (Ae) = 134,865 mm2 Eq. (4.13)


    Effective stiffness (EAe)= 9E+08 N Eq. (4.8)

    Effective concrete axial stiffness = 0.15 of gross axial stiffness
