The different between CP65 (BS8110) and ACI

CP 65 (BS 8110) Assumption: Equivalent rectangular stress box Perfect bond between steel and concrete ACI Assumption: Plan sections remain plan (NOT) Deep beams, Spans shorter than four times their depths. The tensile strength of concrete is neglected in flexural strength calculation Concrete is assumed to fail when the compressive strain reaches a limiting value Material Strength Concrete Characteristic Strength of Concrete, the 28-day compressive strength, cylinder strength, f c The Ultimate Strain, Icc = 0.003 The Ultimate Strain, Icc = 0.0035 (CEB, Europe)

Material Strength Concrete Characteristic Strength of Concrete, the cube crushing strength, fcu Bending Strength = 0.67 fcu Partial Safety Factor for Strength of Concrete, Km = 1.5 The Ultimate Design Stress, = 0.447 or 0.45 The Ultimate Strain, Icc = 0.0035 (all grades)
