Hi Everyone,
I am currently trying to analyse a section which is unreinforced concrete. I have attached below a sketch of the thing I am trying to analyse.
I am not sure how to go with this. I've got a load at the top which will create a bending moment at the interface of the section, which I need to check whether it is sufficient to take the load. I am not sure what strength value to use for the concrete to do this check (maybe 8 N/mm2 bending strength?). I calculate the bending moment due to the self weight of concrete and the live load from above, but I need to compare with strength.
Can someone please help me to show how I can check this?
Many Thanks!
