About the information displayed by the Auditor
The Auditor display information for a single cross section of one span segment strip, or a design section.
The Auditor displays the following:
- Design strip and cross-section number, or design section number
- Concrete components for a cross section
- number of concrete blocks
- top and bottom elevation of each block
- depth and width of each block
- initial and final strengths (cylinder and cube)
- initial and final Ec (modulus of elasticity) values
- density
- inclusion or exclusion of block from shear core
- Reinforcement properties for each bar type
- Tendon properties for each tendon type
- elevation of cgs (center of gravity of strand) above datum
- ultimate strength (stress)
- yield stress
- effective stress
- Ec (modulus of elasticity) value
- area of strand
- bonding
- R-component [the component of the tendon parallel to the design strip cross section (perpendicular to the design strip spine)]
- S-component [the component of the tendon perpendicular to the design strip cross-section (parallel to the design strip spine)]
- Z-component [the vertical component of the tendon across the cross-section (only used for hyperstatic calculations)]
- length
- initial concrete strain
- duct width
- number of strands per duct
- cross sectional area per strand
- number of ducts
- Base design envelopes (for each Rule Set Design):
The envelopes for maxima and minima of moment and shear force are displayed. These are modified, as appropriate, for torsion and axial force design. The envelopes list the following resultants:
- Reinforcement (for each Rule Set Design):
Depending upon the rule set, RAM Concept adds reinforcement to the cross section.
Brackets appear after each result showing which code rule governed. - Cross Section Forces (Analysis)
Depending upon the rule set, the Auditor displays cross section forces and other information.
