Effective depth
Video
Description
What is the effective depth? In short, this is the distance between the component edge of the compression side and the centroid of the tension reinforcement.
It is directly related to the bending design of a component because it defines the inner lever arm and therefore also the acting tensile and compressive forces.
In this video, we will show you how to find out the effective depth of a component and then where to find it in the RF-CONCRETE Surfaces add-on module.
Have fun!

Recommended Wind Tunnel Size Compatible With Eurocode (EN 1991-1-4)
The size of the computational domain (wind tunnel size) is an important aspect on wind simulation that has a significant impact on the accuracy as well as the cost of CFD simulations.
