I am in the process of analysing a curved (elliptical)roof with the following dimensions etc.
span 13'4"
internal dim. -principal axis of ellipse 6'-2" (to centre)
secondary axis of ellipse 3'-11" (from top of roof to centre)
thickness 6",
reinforcement 3/8"h.t. bars longt. @10" c.c longt., top and bot. bars aligned radially /3/8" h.t. bars (curved) @10" c.c ( all top and bottom)
Please verify if these dimensions and reinf. are adequate or advise on how I should approach the design.
regards,
jdw
