fck = 28 MPa Relative humidity = 79.5 % fcm = 36 MPa
Cement type = N (S, N, or R) Ambient temp = 27 ºC Ec28 = 33.92 GPa
Slab depth h0 = 220 mm Curing time = 1 days fctm = 2.766 MPa
Ψ2 = 0.3

fctm is critical when fctm/w is minimum. Therefore, if each stage is analysed with its' own φ factor and fctm,
then ζ and fctm for the erection of partitions/cladding loadcase should be used at subsequent stages.
