section
('RCCircularSection', secTag, coreMatTag, coverMatTag, steelMatTag, d, cover_depth, As, NringsCore, NringsCover, Newedges, Nsteel, '-GJ', GJ) This command allows the user to construct an RCCircularSection object, which is an encapsulated fiber representation of a circular reinforced concrete section with core and confined regions of concrete.
secTag
(int)unique section tag coreMatTag
(int)tag of uniaxialMaterial assigned to each fiber in the core region coverMatTag
(int)tag of uniaxialMaterial assigned to each fiber in the cover region steelMatTag
(int)tag of uniaxialMaterial assigned to each reinforcing bar d
(float)section radius cover_depth
(float)cover depth (assumed uniform around perimeter) As
(float)area of reinforcing bars NringsCore
(int)number of fibers through the core depth NringsCover
(int)number of fibers through the cover depth Newedges
(int)number of fibers through the edges Nsteel
(int)number of fibers through the steels GJ
(float)GJ stiffness

For more general reinforced concrete section definitions, use the Fiber Section command.
