In RF‑/FOUNDATION Pro, the available reinforcing steel diameters can be adjusted by the user. The adjustment of the available rebar diameters works similarly to the same function in the RF‑/CONCRETE (Members) and RF‑/CONCRETE Columns add‑on modules.
In RF‑/FOUNDATION Pro, the reinforcement to be placed in the foundation slab and, if necessary, the bucket links, is displayed in a 3D rendering and in the reinforcement drawings.
To cover the required transverse reinforcement, RF‑CONCRETE Members and CONCRETE determine the most cost-efficient transverse reinforcement as a reinforcement proposal in accordance with the predefined stirrup diameter.
Eurocode 2 provides two ways to perform a crack width design. On one hand, the crack width design according to 7.3.3 can be performed without direct calculation by means of tables for the limitation of the member spacing and diameter. On the other hand, the crack width wk can be determined directly according to 7.3.4 and compared to a limit value.
