(Please visit the site to view this file)By default, the program considers RFACE 4 parameter. It implies that bars will be equally distributed along the 4 sides. The columns are not square in nature and thus this method of distribution of reinforcement fails. You may use RFACE parameters.
RFACE 2.0 implies bars placed along the 2 edges parallel to major axis i.e. local Z
RFACE 3.0 implies bars placed along the 2 edges parallel to minor axis i.e. local Y
In the attached model, the following commands are used.
RFACE 3 MEMB 80 81
RFACE 2 MEMB 61
Please refer to the attached model.
