Cross-section design and verification in high-strength concrete columns and beams

Abstract

This paper presents numerical, dimensionless tables and approximate formulae for the design and checking of RC rectangular cross-sections of beams and columns made of High Strength Concrete (HSC). These tables and formulae are valid for HSC up to 100 N/mm2, and are based on the new parabola-rectangle stress-strain diagrams for HSC of the last issue of the Spanish RC Code EHE-08.
