Design against local concrete crushing and splitting for partially loaded areas based on Eurocode 2

Partially loaded area is introduced when a limited part of a structural concrete member is loaded by a compressive force that is distributed over the area of this limited part.

High concentrated load can lead to high compressive stresses below the loaded area wich develops tensile transversal stresses that can cause cracks. This phenomenon is called splitting.

In addition high concentrated load can also occur local concrete crushing. Both phenomena shall be considered in design of compression concrete members.

The website provides to structural engineers (professionals and students) in the construction sector free-online web app for design against local concrete crushing and splitting for partially loaded areas based on eurocode 2 (swedish standards). It has been tested and verified by experienced civil engineers that the calculation result is accurate. However, despite considerable effort we cannot exclude the possibility that an error exists. The results should therefore always be verified by a qualified engineer.
