This command allows the user to construct an RCSection2d object, which is an encapsulated fiber representation of a rectangular reinforced concrete section with core and confined regions of concrete and single top and bottom layers of steel appropriate for plane frame analysis.

This command allows the user to construct an RCSection2d object, which is an encapsulated fiber representation of a rectangular reinforced concrete section with core and confined regions of concrete and single top and bottom layers of reinforcement appropriate for plane frame analysis.


section RCSection2d $secTag $coreTag $coverTag $steelTag $d $b $cover $Atop $Abot $Aside $Nfcore $Nfcover $Nfs


$secTag unique section tag
$coreTag tag of uniaxialMaterial assigned to each fiber in the core region
$coverTag tag of uniaxialMaterial assigned to each fiber in the cover region
$steelTag tag of uniaxialMaterial assigned to each reinforcing bar
$d section depth
$b section width
$cover cover depth (assumed uniform around perimeter)
$Atop area of reinforcing bars in top layer
$Abot area of reinforcing bars in bottom layer
$Aside area of reinforcing bars on intermediate layers
$Nfcore number of fibers through the core depth
$Nfcover number of fibers through the cover depth
$Nfs number of bars on the top and bottom rows of reinforcement (Nfs-2 bars will be placed on the side rows)
