Purpose:

###

This calculation evaluates concrete members carrying both flexure and axial load using thrust-moment,

###

or P-M, interaction diagrams generated per ACI 318 and ACI 350. Standard axial/flexural provisions, Ch 10,

###

are considered. ACI 350 durability factor is used to factor down the flexural and axial capacities instead

###

of factoring up the factored loads. The end result is an "inner curve" that governs for ACI 350 capacity in the

###

tension-controlled and transition zones.

###
###

Assumptions/Limitations:

###

- Only one layer of steel each for top face reinforcing and bottom face reinforcing can be input.

###

- Ties are provided for confinement (not spirals)

###

Validation:

###

-XLC formulae and peer review provide verification of intended functionality.

###

-Cross-check against software solution (SP Column)

###
###
