Design for bending (pile cap:EC2)

The pile cap is treated as a beam in bending, where the critical bending moments for the design for the bottom reinforcement are taken at the face of the column.

Bending design calculations are performed for the STR load combinations.

The bending capacity check follows the same basic principle as used for beams, see: Design for bending for rectangular sections (beams and slabs: EC2).
