The amount of passive reinforcement to be provided in the ultimate limit state is computed by means of RSD (Reinforcement Sizing Diagrams) taking into account the presence of active reinforcement, for a particular range of pairs active steel area - active steel eccentricity (A(p) - d(p)) that meet the requirements imposed by the serviceability limit state. The solution that provides the minimum total cost of both active and passive steel is selected.
