Reinforcement is provided in accordance with 0.15 percent requirement. This assumes that high strength deformed bars have been provided.

Any bonded or unbonded tendon areas are applied to this provision before calculating any required untensioned reinforcement. Only tendons on the tension side (as determined by the minimum reinforcement setting) or within 10% of the cross section depth are used.

User defined reinforcement that is at an angle to the cross section will only have the component perpendicular to the cross section considered.
