Revision of Ver.7.4.1 Revision of Ver.7.4.1
Function
Check the design results of RC members by numerical components and contours.
Reinforcing information such as rebar diameter, rebar spacing and required reinforcing steel area can be displayed.
Among the design results of RC members, the ratio of axial stress can be checked separately. (But this is applicable to the column and wall members only.)
Note1
In case when Update Rebar is executed after the member design, 'Re-calculation'
has to be performed in order to view the Concrete Design Result on the
screen.
Note 2
The design results for column and wall members can be checked by load combinations. On the other hand, the design results for beam members can be checked only for the most unfavorable load combination. Because in midas Gen, design results for beam members for each load combination are not stored.
Display the number of tie legs for each direction.

Ratio: Steel reinforcement ratio
Display: Select the types of elements for which design reinforcing information will be displayed.
Output Component: Select the component to be displayed.
Ratio of Axial Stress
Main Rebar: Main rebar design result
Shear Reinforcement: Shear reinforcement design result
Column Section Size: Display of column section sizes can be scaled.
Value Option: Specify the number of decimal points for displayed values.
Note. Display of reinforcement
From the V600 of MIDAS/Gen, reinforcing information such as rebar diameter, rebar spacing and required reinforcing steel area can be checked in 'Concrete / SRC Design Result'.
1) When 'Rebar' is selected in Reinforcement
2) When 'Area' is selected in Reinforcement
1. Rebar information for beams
Design results for the beam ич in the Figs. 1) & 2) above are produced.
3) Beam design results (Graphic)
The rebar diameter and spacing denoted by A in Fig. 3) are produced when 'Rebar' is selected in the Reinforcement option in Fig. 1). If 'Area' is selected, the required reinforcing steel areas are produced as denoted by B in Fig. 3).
2. Rebar information for columns
Design results for the column иш in the Figs. 1) & 2) above are produced.
4) Column design results (Graphic)
5) Reinforcing information of column by selecting 'Rebar'
6) Reinforcing information of column by selecting 'Area'
The following outlines the reinforcing information in Figs. 5) & 6):
a. (Uc): Ratio of axial stress of the column (N/(fc' X Ag))
b. (As-corner): Number of corner rebars & rebar area
Ex.) 4-#7 = 4 X 0.6 = 2.4 in2
c & d (Asy, Asz): Number of rebars and rebar area on a single side
e. (Asv): Tie (shear) reinforcing spacing of column, Sc and rebar area within the spacing
Based on the reinforcing information noted at b, c & d above, the total number of rebars then becomes,
b+ ((c - 2) + (d - 2)) X 2 = 4 + ((6 - 2) + (7 - 2)) X 2 = 22
The number of rebars on one side (Asz)=5
22-6-#7 (See C in Fig. 4)
3. Rebar information for walls
Design results for the wall ич in the Figs. 7) & 8) are produced.
7) Reinforcing information of wall by selecting 'Rebar'
8) Reinforcing information of column by selecting 'Area'
The following outlines the reinforcing information in Figs. 7) & 8):
a. (Uc): Ratio of axial stress of the wall (N/(fc' X Ag))
b. (V)8-#4@16": Number of vertical rebars and spacing or vertical reinforcing steel area per unit length (in2/in)
c. (E)12-#3@6": Number of end rebars and spacing or total amount of reinforcing steel (in2)
d. (H)#3@11": Number of horizontal rebars and spacing or horizontal reinforcing steel area per unit length (in2/in)
Output Section Location(Beam)Check RC member design results by sectional locations. It can be used only when "Values" of "Type of Display" is selected.
I, Center, J: Represent the RC beam member's sectional locations. The user can not select the locations. It is automatically selected following the selection of "Max" or "All".
Max: Maximum values appear at every RC beam member.
All: Values appear at each location of RC beam members.
