Concrete details - Table 3.1. Strength and deformation characteristics for concrete
Concrete strength class C35/45
Aggregate type Quartzite
Aggregate adjustment factor - cl.3.1.3(2) AAF = 1.0
Characteristic compressive cylinder strength fck = 35 N/mm2
Mean value of compressive cylinder strength fcm = fck + 8 N/mm2 = 43 N/mm2
Mean value of axial tensile strength fctm = 0.3 N/mm2 (fck/ 1 N/mm2)2/3 = 3.2 N/mm2
Secant modulus of elasticity of concrete Ecm = 22 kN/mm2(fcm / 10 N/mm2)0.3 AAF = 34077 N/mm2
Ultimate strain - Table 3.1 cu2 = 0.0035
Shortening strain - Table 3.1 cu3 = 0.0035
Effective compression zone height factor = 0.80
Effective strength factor = 1.00
Coefficient k1 k1 = 0.40
Coefficient k2 k2 = 1.0 (0.6 + 0.0014 / cu2) = 1.00
Coefficient k3 k3 = 0.40
Coefficient k4 k4 = 1.0 (0.6 + 0.0014 / cu2) = 1.00
Partial factor for concrete -Table 2.1N C = 1.50
Compressive strength coefficient - cl.3.1.6(1) cc = 0.85
Design compressive concrete strength - exp.3.15 fcd = cc fck / C = 19.8 N/mm2
