WinRECOL analyzes, designs or checks a reinforced concrete column. The program has the option to choose one of the following design specifications:
- CLFD = Caltrans Bridge Design Specification LFD, September 2004, with Revisions
- ALFD = AASHTO Bridge Design Specification LFD, Sixteenth, Edition 1996, 1998 Interims and Division I-A Sesimic Design Article
- CLRFD = AASHTO LRFD Bridge Design Specification, Third, Edition 2004, 2006 Interims with Caltrans Amendments,(Blue Sheets v0.06)
- ALRFD = AASHTO LRFD Bridge Design Specification, Thrid, Edition 2004, 2006 Interims
MAin features:
