B. COLUMN REINFORCEMENT DETAILS

56 CHAPTER B: COLUMN REINFORCEMENT DETAILS You are returning to the Cloak for the missile calculation. • In the Connectors field, enter the Diameter and the distance between the connectors of the jacket. OBSERVATION: Their design within the "Connectors" needs to appear on the formwork. For their calculation it is necessary to fill in this field. • Select the desired Performance Level A, B or C for inelastic analysis ***** for the elastic analyses of CAN.EPE • There are 3 mechanisms for transferring the compressive force Fcm of the sheath, is transferred as shear force at the interface: by friction through welded hangers through missiles all three of the above mechanisms are activated within available fitting length "uo". The shear strength at the interface is therefore obtained from the contribution of the friction, suspension and bolt mechanisms. OBSERVATION In SCADA Pro the main mechanism for taking up the shear force is that of bolts. The friction mechanism and the suspension mechanism are optional and are chosen by the designer if they will participate in the shear strength of the interface. • For the participation of the hangers it is required to specify the diameter, the number and the distance hs between the original and the adjacent new longitudinal reinforcement. • For the participation of the friction mechanism it is required to specify one of the two sizes: Either the fitting length and the program calculates the tension received the friction with a coefficient of friction μ=1 Either a percentage of the intensity (%) that the friction mechanism will receive In the case where friction and suspension mechanisms are not taken into account all tension is taken up by the bolts.
