The mild stress strain curve assumes linear elastic behavior up until yield. At that point the stress always returns the yield stress. Strain hardening is not accounted for and rupture strain is not checked.
Interior / Exterior Soil
Input | Description |
|---|---|
Method | Grade: Computes the lateral soil loading using the soil weight. Lateral pressure at a depth is equal to the depth * unit weight * lateral pressure coefficient (ignoring surcharge) Equivalent Fluid Pressure: Computes the lateral soil loading using the equivalent fluid pressure method. For this the lateral pressure coefficient is only used for surcharge loading |
Unit Weight | Unit weight of the soil. |
Lateral Pressure Coefficient | Lateral pressure coefficient for the soil. If equivalent fluid pressure is being used, this value is used only for surcharge loading. |

|---|---|
fpu | Ultimate tensile strength of prestressing steel. |
Ep | Modulus of elasticity of prestressed reinforcement. |
