The final loading case to be considered is concentric axial tension. The strength under pure axial tension is computed by assuming that the section is completely cracked through and subjected to a uniform strain greater than or equal to the yield strain in tension. The strength under such a loading is equal to the yield strength of the reinforcement in tension.
