REINFORCEMENT
REINFORCEMENT
Bend always given in Tensile Steel. Not in Compressive Steel because of Eccentricity
Types of Steel :-
o Mild Steel – Fe 250
o Medium Tensile Steel – Fe 350
o High Yield Strength Steel – Fe 415 & Fe 500 (Tor 40, 50) (IS :- 1786)
o High Strength Steel Wire Fabric
Modulus of Elasticity
o Modulus of Elasticity :- 2*10^5 N/mm^2
o Modulus of Concrete :- 5000* (fck^0.5) N/mm^2
Modular Ratio
o Modular Ratio :- 280/ 3σcbc
o Modular Ratio :- Young Modulus of Steel / Young Modulus of Concrete
Minimum Reinforcement :-
o Beam , Column, Footing :- [(Ast/Bd) = (0.85/fy)]
