Longitudonal reinforcement calculated by Diamonds (EN 1992-1-1 [- -])
The reinforcement due to ULS is shown using a thin line, the reinforcement due to ULS + SLS + buckling with a thick line. Because the SLS verification were turned off, the thick line represents the reinforcement for ULS + buckling.

Longitudonal reinforcement | 593mm² | 593mm² | 0% |
Remarks and notes:
- Don’t forget the calculate the buckling lengths or impose them manually.
- In the calculation of
, Diamonds uses
instead of
. This is because at the moment he starts his calculations, the longitudonal reinforcement
has not yet been unambiguously determined.
