Note: Calculation of Ast
  
Ast = Max {B, C+D, A+D} (for Mu > 0 and C x 1.33 > B)
Ast = Max{B', C x 1.33 + D, A+D} (for Mu > 0 and C x 1.33 < B)
Ast = Bn (for Mu = 0)
Where,
A = Asc (flex) = Compression reinforcement required for bending moment
B = As,min (flex) = Min area of flexural reinforcement
Bn = As,nominal = Nominal area of reinforcement
C = As (flex) = Total area of longitudinal reinforcement calculated at a given section
D = Al (Dist) = Distributed longitudinal torsional reinforcement at section considered
E = A s,reqd Crack = Area of reinforcement required for Crack Width
Ast (Dist) (sqmm) = Max(Al,min (Tor), Al (Tor)) x ((2B) / (2B + 2D))
