Uniform Tension
###
Purpose: ###
This calculation evaluates concrete members carrying both flexure and axial load using thrust-moment, ###
or P-M, interaction diagrams generated per ACI 318 and ACI 350. Standard axial/flexural provisions, Ch 10, ###
are considered. ACI 350 durability factor is used to factor down the flexural and axial capacities instead ###
of factoring up the factored loads. The end result is an "inner curve" that governs for ACI 350 capacity in the ###
tension-controlled and transition zones. ###
###
Assumptions/Limitations: ###
- Only one layer of steel each for top face reinforcing and bottom face reinforcing can be input. ###
Validation: ###
-XLC formulae and peer review provide verification of intended functionality. ###
