2. Benchmark solution

2.1. Calculation method

The reinforcement is calculated using the Capra-Maury method (command CALC_FERRAILLAGE called by the command COMBINAISON_FERRAILLAGE).

2.2. Reference quantities and results

Once the generalized force field has been calculated, the reinforcement field is calculated in accordance with the Capra Maury method (for 2D elements), as well as on the specifications of Eurocode 2 and the calculation algorithms proposed for the various calculation limit states (ELU/ELS CARA/ELS QP).

For more understanding, refer to the elementary test cases reserved for the operator CALC_FERRAILLAGE at the levels of the ssls134 and ssll13 test cases.
