2nd order effects | The user can select from P-Delta, Moment Magnification, or None. See the Engineering Theory for a discussion of these analysis procedures. |
Analysis beta d | When P-Delta has been selected, the user can then select the type of Beta d value used, non-sway or sway (see ACI 318 for a discussion of these two factors). The user can also select to input their own Beta d factor used in the analysis. |

|---|---|
Ktr | Value to fine tune development length calculations. |
Bar Confinement Provided | The bar confinement input is used for computing both the development length of hooked bars in tension and headed bars in tension. This determines if development lengths should be increased through the use of the confining reinforcement factor and the parallel tie reinforcement factor respectively. |
Load Patterning
If checked, all live loads will be patterns. See the live load patterning page for more information.
