Chapter 3: Reinforced Concrete Slabs and Beams, Part 5
Description:
This application calculates gross section moment of inertia neglecting reinforcement, moment of inertia of the cracked section transformed to concrete, and effective moment of inertia for T-beams, rectangular beams, or slabs, in accordance with Section 9.5.2.3 of ACI 318. The user must enter the strengths of the concrete and the reinforcement, the unit weight of concrete, strength reduction factor for lightweight concrete, beam dimensions and slab thickness, maximum moments in the member at the stage deflection is computed, cross-sectional areas of reinforcement and distances from the extreme compression fiber to the centroid of the tension and compression reinforcement.
