I want to create a while loop to calculate the right compression depth ( a ) then calculate the right area of steel ( As)

then  Revise a then As

until the tensile force = compression ( 0.85 fc a b ) = As fy

thank you

Step #1:  Select the "use the advanced editor" tab in the top right corner of this window.  This will create an "attach" icon in the lower right corner (where "Mention" is now.)  Attach your sheet as Valery has requested.

Step#2:  Read the help section on solve blocks.  Mathcad has built-in tools that make most while and/or programming exercises avoidable.

This sheet is version 3.1.

Many of us cannot open it.  Can you create a PDF file and post that?  Or another viewable version?
