GaLa Reinforcement is a free program, developed as a part of Dr. Ilia Alashki Ph. D. thesis in 1997-2002. It is still one of the most powerful programs in the world for calculation of crack widths and cracked concrete stiffness degradation. The program supports non-linear creep, arbitrary cross section geometry, arbitrary reinforcement layout, axial load with double bending moments, etc.

Concrete Design Codes:

• ACI 318-99, AASHTO LRFD 1997
• Eurocode 2
• BS 8110
• CSA-A23. 3-94
• BDS 1988, BDS HT 1989
• NZS 3101-95
• DIN 1045
• UBC 97

Analysis Types:

1. Design Section: The program calculates the necessary area of reinforcing bars.
2. Check Section: The program checks the capacity of R/C cross-section with predefined reinforcement.
3. Failure Surface: The program calculates and draws interaction failure surfaces of R/C cross-section with predefined reinforcement.
4. Stress-strain: The program calculates the strains and stresses of R/C cross-section with predefined reinforcement.
5. 1/r - EI: The program calculates the curvatures and stiffnesses of R/C cross-section with predefined reinforcement.
6. 1/r - EI chart: The program calculates and draws the curvature and stiffness charts of R/C cross-section with predefined reinforcement.
7. Crack widths: The program calculates the crack width and space between the cracks of R/C cross-section with predefined reinforcement.

* GaLa Reinforcement download link provides freeware version of the software.

I have a windows 10 version installed in my computer, and most of the programs in here are windows 7 version. How can i solve these issues because they are not working on windows 10 most software.

Does anyone know which Eurocode method the program utilizes? Nominal Stiffness, Nominal Curvature or the general method? I am already using the software, but I can't find this information.

Thanks, Grzegorz and Carlos!

Anyone knows how to save the file? I'm able to generate report but I don't know ho to save the file after the run.

Grzegorz thanks a lot! i could run it in compatibility! Well, right click in gala. exe, then properties, compatibility and finally in xp pack 2, thats all.

Grzegorz Czerpak · 17 Jun 2019★★★★★

Run it in compatibility mode choosing "windows xp" and run it as an administrator, it worked for me
