Define project criteria for computing moment capacity.
Item | Description |
---|---|
Include girder longitudinal mild reinforcement in capacity calculations | When checked, the mild steel longitudinal reinforcement in the girder will be included in the capacity analysis. Prestressing strand is always included the capacity analysis. |
Modulus of rupture for cracking moment (LRFD 5.4.2.6, 5.7.3.3.2) | Enter the coefficient for the modulus of rupture for computing cracking moment. |
Define the resistance factors
Define the resistance factors for conventional construction for normal weight and lightweight concrete.
Define the resistance factors for cast-in-place closure joints for normal weight and lightweight concrete.
Deck longitudinal reinforcement provides all tensile section forces in the negative moment region of the structure. This option specifies whether non-composite loads are included when computing the negative moment capacity.
