Abstract

RCDiagra software as a part of the domestic STARKON software is presented. The software is designed to perform fire resistance and fire safety analysis of reinforced concrete beams and columns. The strength analysis is based on the nonlinear deformation theory and enables to take into account non-stationary thermal effects changing the concrete and reinforcement properties. To determine the ultimate strength, elastic modulus for concrete and reinforcement, ultimate relative deformations, a thermal analysis is performed in accordance with SP 468.1325800.2019 and MDS 21-2.2000. The thermal engineering analysis solve the problem of determining the temperature field in the beam cross-section under non-stationary thermal action, depending on the boundary conditions and thermophysical parameters of the material. It is assumed that the coefficients of thermal conductivity and specific heat capacity of concrete depend on the current temperature at the crosssection points.
