Calculation Steps:

    Define Parameters
    • d_b_display

      Diameter of longitudinal bar

      in
    • Ψ_t

      Casting position factor

    • Ψ_e

      Bar coating factor

    • Ψ_g

      Reinforcement grade factor per Table 25.4.2.5

    • Ψ_s

      Bar size factor per Table 25.4.2.5; 0.8 for #6 and smaller, 1.0 for #7 and larger

    • Ψ_tΨ_e

      Product of casting position and coating factors, limited to 1.7 per 25.4.2.5
