User's Guide for Concrete Strength Investigation and Design (CSTR) by Clifton C. Hamby,William A. Price Pdf
CSTR, called X0066 in the Conversationally Oriented Real-Time Program-Generating System (CORPS) library, is a general-purpose computer program for the strength theory analysis or design of reinforced concrete beams or columns, in accordance with ETL 1110-2-265 for hydraulic structures. It is intended to be an easy-to-use program. Program CSTR is versatile in that its capabilities extend from design of new concrete hydraulic structures to investigation of already existing designs. Its analysis is based on the rectangular stress block described in ETL 1110-2-265. The design procedure is computer-aided rather than automatic and computes the minimum reinforcement required for a given width and depth, and displays the resulting interaction diagram. The program also computes and prints the minimum effective depth of a given section which satisfies strength requirements and steel ratio requirements without compressive reinforcement. The investigation procedure shows interaction diagrams and calculates compliance with ductile failure criteria.
