| Shape |
The choices are:
- Open: Capable of resisting shear only
- Closed: Two legs are capable of resisting torsion in addition to shear
|
| Number of Legs |
The number of vertical legs in the transverse reinforcement |
| Spacing Control |
If the length/spacing are not in equal increments, this controls which is the independent property (that remains fixed) and which is the dependant property (that gets adjusted). The choices are:
- Length Fixed: The length remains fixed, and the input spacing is taken as a maximum spacing and adjusted down to create an equal number of spaces.
- Spacing Fixed: the spacing remains fixed, and the input length is adjusted up to an equal increment of the input spacing. The length is always adjusted at the end of the transverse rebar object, and the start point remains fixed.
|
| Length |
The specified length of the region which contains transverse reinforcement. |
| Spacing |
The specified spacing between the transverse reinforcement along the region. |
