o Equilibrium conditions
Forces in steel bars:
S1 = f s1 As1 = ( s1 Es ) As1
S2 = f s 2 As 2 = ( s 2 Es ) As 2
S3 = f s 3 As 3 = ( s 3 Es ) As 3
S4 = f s 4 As 4 = ( s 4 Es ) As 4
Force equilibrium:

(b) Set the neutral axis depth c equal to the neutral axis depth
computed from balanced failure condition for the section.
(c) Compute the value of Pu and update c using a modified secant
numerical method until Pu = P .
(d) Compute eux and euy and compare with ex and ey to decide
whether the section is adequate or not.
