1. A reinforced concrete beam has the following properties: fy= 60 ksi = 60,000 psi f'c= 5,000 psi As = 3.01 in² b = 12 in d = 20 in a) Use equation 13.3.3 from the text to compute the depth of the compressive stress block (a). b) Calculate the actual percentage of reinforcement (p). Do not use the value from Table 13.2 because this assumes the beam is balanced. c) Determine the moment capacity (M) in kip ft. Hint: you will have to compute R value first.
