I would like to hear some opinions (code independent) about why is bending reinforcement not adding up (or you do add it up)to already calculated cracking reinforcement (caused by shrinking). Talking firstly about foundation slabs.
Thank.
Greetings,
I am curios on how is this topic in different codes discussed.
Lets say we have a flat slab where the columns are pinned, the area load is uniform and there is a point load on the slab that should be transferred into the column 1.
Shear and compression stresses are at the control...
