OK. Also in Italy and Europe it is a common practice to grout additional bars into the cores or in the key ways.
How can I size the bars to be grouted into the cores at the extremities of the slab. How many cm2 of reinforcement should be placed according to ACI code? Where Can I find some...
Thanks to each contribute.
Back to my example but considering the length of the beam equal to 5.00 m.
According to EC2 As at supports is equal to 9.14cm2
According to ACI 318-02 a flexural reinforcement at midspan is required and it's equal to about 27.85cm2. One third of this area is equal to...
Hi,
I'm an Italian user of Robot Millenium.
I think Robot has one of the best interface of structural analysis software. It has powerful modelling tools.
Robot is very powerful for steel design. It can be enhanced for RC design but it can be used to manage strctures like that one you described...
Robot Millenium (Robot).
Great FE Packages, great assistance, not too difficult to learn, multi-language, multi-codes (both for concrete and steel design).

Hi to every one,
thanks for your replies and contributes.
I read teh chapter 7 and chapter 12 of ACI code, but I didn't found the provision about the minimum area of bottom reinforcement to place at the supports for a simply supported beam ... better, there's a minimum area but it is very...
Hi to every one.
I'm an italian engineer.
I'm studying the ACI 318 Code and at the moment I'm interested to shear desgin. Reading the code I didn't find any provision about bottom longitudinal reinforcement to place at supports and capable to withstand a tensile force equal to shear value V.
I...
