Prompts configuration entry

Configuration(s): Brick floor: entry + Solid brick floor: entry + Suspended brick floor: entry

These values determine the default value prompts for the design parameters.

'Precast element prompts' tab

Standard concrete cover:

The standard value for concrete cover.

Standard slab thickness: (brick floor only)

The standard value for slab thickness.

Concrete grade:

Preset concrete grades for the design. The list box includes all the entries that are defined in the concrete grade catalog and assigned to the current factory.

Exposure class:

Preset for the exposure class.
You need to include the exposure class in reinforcement drawings according to DIN 1045-1, section 4.2.1 (3). Among other things, cement formulation, minimum concrete cover and minimum concrete strength grade depend on the exposure class.

Additional text for mark number:

Complementary text for mark number.

'Loads/struct. analyses prompts' tab

Structural item:

Imposed load:

Proposed imposed load in [kN/m2].

Floor structure:

Proposed deadweight load without dead weight of slab (floor structure, factor for partition etc.)

The following entries are only available for the suspended brick floor:

as-req.:

Proposed 'as required'.

Reinforcement type:

Proposed reinforcement type for design. The list box includes all the entries that are defined in the reinforcement type catalog and assigned to the current factory.

Prompt required area of tensile reinforcement:

Select this check box if the reinforcement is to be determined by entering the reinforcement as-req.

Prompt reinforcement type:

Select this check box if you wish to select the reinforcement type yourself. If the Prompt required area of tensile reinforcement option is also active, the program calculates the reinforcement type from this entry.
