Concrete:
Using ACI Code
40mm cover on all sides for the shear reinforcement or 50mm cover for the main
reinforcement
The yield strength of steel to be used is 414MPa and concrete with 35MPa.
Using 25mmØ reinforcing bar for main reinforcement and 10mmØ reinforcement
for shear and torsional reinforcement.
