USE_CENTER_LINE_FOR_RC_AREA_FORMSLAB

Last modified by Oskar Kristinsson on 2025/11/18 10:24

Add a new possibility for calculating the actual reinforcement area for FormSlab called centerline

Example of the IMPACT default setting:

VariableTypeValue
USE_CENTER_LINE_FOR_RC_AREA_FORMSLAB00

When this setting is disabled, all reinforcement bars in both directions are considered, and the actual reinforcement area is calculated for each direction individually.

Example with a user default setting:

VariableTypeValue
USE_CENTER_LINE_FOR_RC_AREA_FORMSLAB01

When this setting is enabled, all reinforcement bars crossing the center line in both directions are considered, and the actual reinforcement area is calculated for each direction individually.
