This page includes some notes on reinforced concrete as used in the construction of walls
and structures. It is important to note that I have based most of the content of this page
on BS 8110 -1:1997. This standard has now been replaced by Eurocode BS EN1992.
There are a number of differences between BS 8110 and BS EN 1992 e.g the symbols are
generally different (N in BS8110 = N ED in BS EN 1992). The notes are not intended to
enable detail design to the latest codes they are simply provided to enable mechanical
engineers to understand the topic and produce basic design studies. Formal design work
must be completed in accordance with the relevant codes.
Reinforced concrete is probably the most prolific and versatile construction material . It is
composed of two distinct materials concrete and reinforcement , each of which can be
varied in quality disposition and quantity to fulfill a wide range of construction
requirements.
The concrete composition is an based on three constituents : aggregate, cement and water.
These are mixed together in a homogeneous mass and are then put in place and left for
the chemical and physical changes to occur that result in a hard and durable material.
Information on concrete forms is provided on webpage concrete.
The strength and
durability of the resulting concrete depends on the quality and quantity of each of the
constituents and on any additional additives have been added to the wet mix.
Much of
the mixing is now done off site by ready mix companies ..The strength of the resulting
mixes is generally confirmed by a cube crushing test.
The concrete reinforcement is generally steel although other materials are sometimes used
such as glass fibre.
The main reinforcement bars are generally high yield deformed bars (
f y >= 460 N/m2 ) . Reinforcement links are often mild steel ( f y >= 250 N/m2 ) although
high yield steel is becoming more popular. For reinforced concrete slabs and walls it is
convention to use mesh reinforcement.
The reinforcement is generally located to compensate for the concrete being weak in
tension e.g in spanning beams the reinforcement is primarily located in the bottom half of a
section and at the midspan. In a cantilever beam the reinforcement will generally be at
the top of the beam with the maximum concentration at the support.
In the notes below the characteristic strength for concrete ( f cu ) is the value of the cube
strength and the characteristic strength for the reinforcement ( f y ) is the designated
proof/yield strength. The referenced standard for these notes (BS 8110) also identifies a
partial factor of safety m which is applied to these strengths to take into account the
difference between test and practical conditions. It should be noted that the strength of
concrete related to flexure is actually accepted as 0,67. f cu.
The characteristic load regime on a structure comprises a characteristic dead load (G k) and
a characteristic imposed load ( Q k ) and sometimes a characteristic wind load ( W k ) these
are each modified by an appropriate partial safety margin f
Structures made from concrete to BS 8110 (and to the latest codes ) should be designed to
transmit the design ultimate dead , wind , and imposed loads safely from the highest
supported level to the foundations. The structure and interactions between the included
members should ensure a robust and stable design . The design should also be such that
the structure is able to remain is service . Account should be taken of temperature, creep,
shrinkage, sway, settlement and cyclic loading as appropriate.

When completing analysis of cross sections to determine the ultimate resistance to bending
certain assumptions are made
1)The strain distribution in tension or compression assumes plane
sections remain plane
2) The compressive stresses in concrete are derived from stress
strain curve shown below with m = 1,5
3) The tensile strength of concrete is ignored
4) The stresses in the reinforcement are derived from the
stress/strain curve as shown below m = 1,15
5) When the section is resisting only flexure the lever arm should
not be greater than 0,95x the effective depth
The effective depth is the depth from the compression face to the centre of the area of the
main reinforcement group
Formwork
The formwork is the timber , steel or plastic moulds into which the concrete is poured on
site to create the various concrete components. It is a vital part of the construction
process and the formwork costs can be up to 50% of the concrete construction costs. The
reinforcement must be located in the formword prior to pouring the concrete.
The formwork must be leaktight, strong and rigid to contain and maintain dimensions of the
full liquid concrete mass. It must also be designed for standardisation and reuse to reduce
the construction costs to a minimum.
It is clear that the formwork should not only be designed for construction it should also
include features allowing safe and convenient removal and re-use

The end of the column is connected monolithically (solidly) to beams

the column in the plane considered. Where the column is
connected to a foundation structure, this should be of a form
specifically designed to carry moments.

Design Calculations
When a stocky column is subject to a simple axial loads with induced moments , assuming a
well balanced load scenario , it need only be design for the ultimate design axial force + a
nominal allowance for an eccentricity of force (e c ) of h/20 (with a maximum of 20mm).
When a stocky column is subject Axial forces and bending stresses it is generally necessary
to use design charts .Reference Column Design charts.

Design of Walls
The design axial forces in a reinforced wall may be calculated on the assumption that the
beam and floor slabs being supported are simply supported.
The effective length of a wall l e should be obtained as if the wall was a column which is
subject to moments in the plane normal to the wall. The determination if a wall is stocky
or slender is also obtained using the same criteria as for a column.
Stocky reinforced walls
A stocky braced reinforced wall supporting reasonably symmetrical load should be designed
such than..
n
= 0,55.f
.A c + f y.0,67A
cu
SC
n w = total design axial load on wall due to design ultimate loads :providing the slab loads
are uniform in loading and relatively evenly distributed.
Except for short braced walls loaded symmetrically the eccentricity in the direction at right
angles to a wall should not be less than h/20 or 20mm if less.
When the eccentricity results from only transverse moments the design axial load may be
assumed to be evenly distributed along the length of the wall. The cross section should be
designed to resist the design ultimate load and the transverse moment . The assumptions
made for the calculation of beam sections apply.
When a wall is subject to in-plane moments and uniform axial forces the cross section of the
wall should be designed to support the ultimate resulting axial loads and inplane moments.
Slender reinforced walls
The maximum slenderness ratio l e/h should be 40 for braced walls with <1% reinforcement:
45 for braced walls with => 1% reinforcement: 30 for unbraced walls
A suitable design procedure is to first consider axial forces and in-plane moments to obtain
the distribution of forces along the wall assuming the concrete does not resist tension. The
transverse moments are then calculated. At various points along the wall the results are
combined.
Walls subject to significant transverse moments additional to the ones allowed for by
assuming a minimum eccentricity are considered by assuming such walls are slender
columns bent about the minor axis . If the wall is reinforced with only one central layer of
reinforcement the additional moments should be doubled
Plain walls
Plain walls include less than 0,4% reinforcement.
The effective height of plain unbraced concrete walls is assessed as ( l e = 1,5 l o ) if the wall
is supporting a roof or floor slab, otherwise it is calculated as (l e = 2 l o).
When a plain concrete wall is braced with lateral supports resisting both rotation and
movement then ( l e = 0,75 l o )
Where the lateral support only resists lateral movement then ( l e = l o )or if relevant ( l
2,5 (distance between support and a free edge )
Solid slabs can be simply one-way loaded plates or two way loaded plates depending on the
support arrangements

Deflection .
The deflection can be limited by the application of the span/depth ratio as indicated in the
table for beams and modified by the use of F2 as shown in the relevant graph Design of
Beams...... Only conditions at the centre of slab in the width of the should be used to
influence the deflection.
For two way spanning slabs the ratio should be based on the shorter span.
Flat slabs should be designed to satisfy deflection requirements and to resist the shear load
around the column supports.
BS 8110 allows for a simplified method for determining moments subject to certain
provisions
1) design is based on a single load case of all spans being loaded
with the maximum design ultimate load.
2) There are at least three rows of panels of approx equal span in
the direction under consideration
4)The ratio of imposed to dead load does not exceed 1,25
5)The characteristic imposed load does not exceed 5kN/m2
This method involve simply using the table provided for design moments in simple one way
spanning continuous slabs as provided above as copied below.
Moments at supports resulting from the table below are reduced by 0,15F.h c
The design moments resulting should be divided between the column strips and mid-strips
as shown in the figure below in proportions as shown in table below

successive perimeters are checked until the applied shear stress i is less than the allowable
shear stress c. Reinforcement links are required between the perimeters at which the
shear stress is greater than c.
Deflection .
When the gross width of drops in both directions exceed 1/3 the respective span the
deflection can be limited by the application of the span/depth ratio as indicated in the table
for beams Design of Beams...... Otherwise the resulting span/effective depth should be
multiplied by 0,9.
The assessment should be completed for the most critical direction.
