Concrete Short Column Analysis and Design

Calculates bending moment/axial force interaction diagram for rectangular or circular reinforced concrete column with typical or irregular rebar layout. Now calculates crack width under working stresses. Confirms ACI 318, AASHTO and AS3600 design codes.



ShortCol - investigation of reinforced concrete column section

ShortCol computes ultimate strength of reinforced concrete column subjected to combined axial force and bending moment. Ultimate strength is found from strain compatibility analysis assuming equivalent rectangular concrete stress distribution. In addition, ShortCol calculates transformed properties of fully cracked reinforced concrete section at ultimate limit state and calculates crack width at service limit states.
