Transcribed Image Text:Problem #2: The simple-span T-Beam shown is part of a floor system of span length 20 ft and beam spacing of
45 inches o.c. Use b = 45 inches, f'c = 3000 psi and fy = 60000 psi. The bars are placed with 1" clear space
between the layers.
a) Find the Practical Moment Strength of the beam.
b) How much tension steel would be required in the beam instead to make the compressive stress block just
completely cover the flange (hf = a)?
