B. COLUMN REINFORCEMENT DETAILS

50 CHAPTER B: COLUMN REINFORCEMENT DETAILS the above values are displayed. Wwd is Wwdcalc and Wwdt is Wwdreq. Must always be Wwdcalc> Wwdreq, Wwd> Wwdt For the first direction z (parallel to the long side) we have Wwd=0.262 Wwdcalc=0.26 these two quantities coincide. Wwdt=0.218, while from the original sizing Wwdreq=0.24. Here we have a difference compared to the size of the original dimensioning which is justified by the fact that in the original I do not have the exact positions of the bending irons in order to calculate the distances correctly. However, the differences will not be large. The exact one is of the recheck. Similarly, in the other direction I have a larger value of the Wwd size due to the presence of the square connector. In summary, in order to achieve the same result as the original sizing in the wall recheck, I have to define 2 connector sections and choose the direction that is perpendicular to the small side of the wall. Finally, as regards the other forms of walls (Gamma, Tau etc.) the element is divided into rectangles and the check is done per rectangular leg in the same way as explained above. About the Circumference Specifically for the Clamping it is noted that it has been incorporated for all existing types of reinforcement in the columns and the metal cage in the program. The increase of concrete strength and deformation at fracture is done for all reinforcements (connectors, plates and IOP). The new values are shown on existing cross-section data page in the reinforcement printout. Bracing works only on poles (not on walls) and requires closed reinforcement on all sides. On the clamping of the walls finally in them is taken into account only when I have reinforcement with IOP or laminates. The increased strength and deformation values are shown on the first page of the reinforcement printout. This page refers to the existing cross-section.
