Bresler Load Contour Method


In this method, the surface S3 is approximated by a family of curves corresponding to constant values of Pn. These curves may be regarded as load contours.
where Mnx and Mny are the nominal biaxial moment strengths in the direction of the xand y-axes, respectively. Note that these moments are the vectorial equivalent of the nominal uniaxial moment Mn. The moment Mn0x is the nominal uniaxial moment strength about the x-axis, and Mn0y is the nominal uniaxial moment strength about the y-axis.

Bresler Load Contour Method


The general expression for the contour curves can be approximated as:
M nx M ny M + M = 1 .0 n0 x n0 y

The values of the exponents and are a function of the amount distribution and location amount, of reinforcement, the dimensions of the column, and the strength and elastic properties of the steel and concrete. Bresler indicates that it is reasonably accurate to assume that =
