I need verify the effective area of reinforcement of a cone-to-cylinder junction at small end.
The Code address the calculation of the minimum required thickness of a cone in UG-33(f), but I cannot find any procedure to calculate the minimu required thickness of cone at small end to be used in equation 4 of Appendix 1-8.
