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.
A rectangular slab with a span of 4 meters and a thickness of 0.2 meters is subjected to a permanent load of 2 kN/m^2 and a variable load of 1.5 kN/m^2. The slab is reinforced with a mesh of 10 mm diameter bars at 200 mm spacing.
Using EC2, the design bending moment is calculated as: worked examples to eurocode 2 volume 2
The beam requires additional shear reinforcement.
The required reinforcement area is calculated as: A square column with a side length of 0
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.
