2. A reinforced concrete beam having a width of 310 mm and an overall depth of 550mm is reinforced with 2-25 mm compression bars and 8- 25 mm tension bars both having fy = 415 MPa. Concrete protective covering is 50 mm from the centroid of the bar group. Unit weight of concrete is 23.5 kN/m3. Concrete strength fc' = 21 MPa. The beams is supported as shown. L1 = 8m and L2 = 3m. Other than the weight of the beam, the beam will support a uniform live load. Calculate the following: a) the balance tension steel area. b) the ultimate moment capacity of the beam. c) maximum uniform service liveload that the beam can carry. Wo, W L. BA
