Capacity design criteria for seismic design of concrete columns and beams

The 2013.e and 2013.g versions of CYPECAD implemented the capacity design criteria for bending at the supports in accordance with Annex 10 of the EHE-08 code and in accordance with the NCSE-02 code, and the capacity design criteria for shear for the seismic design of beams in accordance with the same codes.

Now, for the 2013.h, the following codes have been implemented:

  • The capacity design criteria for shear at concrete supports in accordance with Annex 10 of the EHE-08 code (Spain).
  • The capacity design criteria for shear at concrete supports and beams in accordance with the IS 13920: 1993 (Indian).

The capacity design criteria which are currently implemented are:

  • For concrete supports:
  • Capacity design criteria for bending and shear in accordance with Annex 10 of the EHE-08 code (Spain).
  • Capacity design criteria for bending in accordance with NCSE-02 (Spain)
  • Capacity design criteria for shear in accordance with IS 13920: 1993 (India)
  • For concrete beams:
  • Capacity design criteria for shear in accordance with Annex 10 of the EHE-08 code (Spain).
  • Capacity design criteria for shear in accordance with NCSE-02 (Spain)
  • Capacity design criteria for shear in accordance with IS 13920: 1993 (India)

These design criteria are applied in CYPECAD and are specified in the Detailed Ultimate Limit State check reports if the selected codes are those which have been indicated.
