Abstract

This thesis describes the development and use of three dimensional strength interaction diagrams of reinforced concrete sections for different loading conditions. It also gives a comprehensive overview of modes of failure surfaces and provides design aids for members subjected to biaxial bending and axial tension. This is the phenomena which is rather overlooked analytically and graphical predictions are made. The computer program provides a special tool for the analysis and fast interation of combination of loadings and moments.
