Règles techniques de conception et de calcul de ouvrages et constructions en béton armé suivant la method des états limites.
This code was implemented in CYPE programs in the 2009.1.a version. In the 2013.b version, a group of codes were included which allowed for the Advanced column editor of CYPECAD to be used (which, besides permitting users to use the advanced column editor, also allowed for the Detailed Ultimate Limit State reports and automatic reinforcement tables to be generated).
Now, in the 2014.a version, the following improvements have been implemented when using the French BEL 91 (R-99) concrete code:
- Use of the Advanced beam editor of CYPECAD, which includes amongst other features:
- Detailed U.L.S. and S.L.S. check reports for concrete beams (including torsion checks)
- U.L.S. and S.L.S. reports for steel beams
- Reinforcement area (required and effective) graphs
- Reinforcement bar bending diagrams and reinforcement detailing in the frame drawings
- And, in general, allows users to edit the resistant elements of the frame graphically, easily, quickly and comfortably (reinforcement, steel sections, lattices, shear studs, etc.)
- By combining the use of the BAEL 91 (R-99) with the following seismic codes, the advanced beam and column editors of CYPECAD can also be used:
- PS 92 (France)
Règles de Construction Parasismique – Règles PS applicable aux bâtiments – PS 92. - PS 92 (version révisée 2010) (France)
Règles de Construction Parasismique – Règles PS applicable aux bâtiments – PS 92 (version révisée 2010). - RPA 99/v 2003 (Algeria)
Règles Parasismiques Algériennes RPA 99 / VERSION 2003. - RPS 2000 (Morocco)
Règlement de Construction Parasismique. - RPS 2011 (Morocco)
Règlement de Construction Parasismique (version révisée 2011).
Additionally, the U.L.S. reports for columns and beams that are generated by the advanced beam and column editors, include reinforcement ductility criteria and the capacity design criteria for seismic design (bending and shear for the seismic design of concrete supports, and capacity design criteria for shear for the seismic design of concrete beams) indicated in each of the aforementioned codes.
