Gravity Beam Design Report

Dramix

The Beam Design Report has been modified to show the Dramix design results as follows:

COMPOSITE PROPERTIES (Not Shored):
.
.
.
Decking Type (with Dramix)       Kingspan MD 60     Kingspan MD 60
.
.
.
TRANSVERSE REINFORCING:
  Dramix RC-65/60-BN Steel Fibres
    fy (N/mm2):     900.0
    dosage (kg/m3):     30.0
  Reinforcement fy (N/mm2):     460.0
  Total Longitudinal v (kN/m):   388.3
  Left Side:
    Longitudinal v (kN/m)=138.7
    Dramix Steel Fibres (kN/m): 0.7 Asv fy=365.2
    Concrete Resistance (kN/m): 0.03 eta Acv fcu=167.7
    Maximum vr (kN/m): 0.8 eta Acv sqrt(fcu) + vp=748.7 + vp
    .
    .
    .
  Right Side:
    Longitudinal v (kN/m)=138.7
    Dramix Steel Fibres (kN/m): 0.7 Asv fy=365.2
    Concrete Resistance (kN/m): 0.03 eta Acv fcu=167.7
    Maximum vr (kN/m): 0.8 eta Acv sqrt(fcu) + vp=748.7 + vp
    .
    .
    .

The value given in this report for Required Asv is based on the area required to resist the shear, after that shear has been reduced by the contribution of the Dramix steel fibres. Hence, Required Asv shows the traditional reinforcing required in addition to the Dramix steel fibres.
