d1/r = h'/r = 0.283

Normalized axial force:
v = Ned / (b * h * fcd)= 0.141
Normalized bending moment my:
my = Ed,y / (r^2 * d * PI* fcd)= 0
Normalized bending moment my:
my = Ed,y / (r^2 * d * PI* fcd)= 0
Normalized bending moment mz:
mz = Ed,z / (d * r^2 * * fcd)= 0
Omega = 0.1191
Area of calculated required reinforcement:
As_rot_req = omega * r * r * * fcd / fyd = 5.91 cm2
The minimum area of reinforcement is As_min = Max(0.1 * Ned / fcd, 0.002 * Ac) = 14.357 cm2
The maximum area of reinforcement is As_max = 0.04 * Ac = 40.715 cm2
The required Reinforcement is As_req = 14.357 cm2
