Using EC2, the design axial load is calculated as:
These worked examples illustrate the application of Eurocode 2 to various concrete structure design scenarios. They demonstrate the importance of careful consideration of loads, material properties, and reinforcement requirements to ensure the safety and durability of concrete structures.
A square column with a side length of 0.4 meters and a height of 3 meters is subjected to a permanent axial load of 500 kN and a variable axial load of 200 kN. The column is reinforced with 4 longitudinal bars of 20 mm diameter.
Using EC2, the design bending moment is calculated as:
The required reinforcement area is calculated as:
λ = 3 / 0.4 = 7.5
The beam requires additional shear reinforcement.
As.provided = 4 x π x (16/2)^2 = 804 mm^2
