Verification of AS 3600 Reinforced Concrete Design Modules (Beam and Columns)
Information presented on this page is intended to demonstrate the section design convergence for the AS-3600 design module from the SkyCiv Reinforced Concrete Design Software. All examples are taken from the following Reinforced Concrete Design Manuals:
Book 1. Yew-Chaye Loo, Sanaul Huq Chowdhury. Reinforced and Prestressed Concrete: Analysis and Design with Emphasis on Application of AS3600-2009 (First Edition), 2010.
3.3.6 Illustrative example for ultimate strength of a singly reinforced rectangular section (i)
| Design Case | Manual | SkyCiv Result | SkyCiv Report |
|---|---|---|---|
| Design moment strength φMd, kN-m | 278.82 | 278.82 | View |
3.5.3 Example 1: Doubly reinforced rectangular sections
| Design Case | Manual | SkyCiv Result | SkyCiv Report |
|---|---|---|---|
| Design moment strength φMd, kN-m | 604.02 | 607.13 |
3.7.7 Example 1: Analysis of singly reinforced T-Sections
| Design Case | Manual | SkyCiv Result | SkyCiv Report |
|---|---|---|---|
| Design moment strength φMd, kN-m | 1496.60 | 1496.95 | View |
5.3.5 Design Example: Ultimate strength design for shear
| Design Case | Manual | SkyCiv Result | SkyCiv Report |
|---|---|---|---|
| Design shear strength Vu, kN | 547.70 | 315.80* |
* V* uses Asv,min to compute for Vus for more conservative shear design results.
