Thank you very much again!
We students normally don't use ACI but Eurocode 2 haha, however, I am currently engaged in my thesis research where I compare international standards with Eurocode 2, particularly focusing on the differences in ductility.
So far, most of the differences are in field...
Thank you very much for your answer!
Because we actually never work with the ACI here in Europe, it's difficult to verify if my calculations/findings are correct, so I want to thank you once again!
Furthermore, I am also comparing the lap splice length of reinforcement bars. In section...
Thanks!
Is the development length independent of the force that acts on the anchor?
Im assuming this would be the simplified one
ld = (fy*φt*φe*φg/1.4λ*root(f'c))*Db
the one where may aplly for a reduction
ld = fy/1.1λ*root(f'c)*φt*φe*φs*φg/((cb+kr)/db)
the fy = would be the maximum yield...
Hello,
Is there anyone who could help me calculate the minimum required anchor length for one ribbed rebar using the ACI 318?
In Eurocode 2, you need to follow these steps to calculate the length:
lb,rqd = (φ / 4) (σsd / fbd) (required length)
fbd = 2.25 η1 η2 fctd (bond strength)
Then...
As a student at a Dutch university, I am presently writing my thesis on "How can prefabricated connections be designed to be ductile based on international standards," as part of the requirement to graduate in civil engineering. Along my research journey, I have encountered a discrepancy in...
