A 255mm x 350mm beam is reinforced by 2-20mm bar on compression side and 4-20mm bar on the tension side. If the beam was designed to be a doubly reinforced beam, determine if the structure can support the loads. Use the following data in your calculations: f'c = 18 MPa, fy = 414 MPa, stirrup diameter = 10mm; clear cover = 40mm; tension effective depth = 290mm; compression bar effective depth = 60mm; Es = 200 GPa. Use LRFD in the analysis. Use the same beam lengths and loadings as in Problem 1.  Beam lengths and loadings of Problem 1: 275mm x 330mm (WxH) has the following properties: f'c = 29 MPa fy = 400 MPa clear cover = 40mm  The beam is reinforced by 4-20mm bar (arranged in a single line with adequate spacing in between), 10mm diameter stirrups, and clear cover of 40mm.

A 255mm x 350mm beam is reinforced by 2-20mm bar on compression side and 4-20mm bar on the tension side. If the beam was designed to be a doubly reinforced beam, determine if the structure can support the loads. Use the following data in your calculations: f'c = 18 MPa, fy = 414 MPa, stirrup diameter = 10mm; clear cover = 40mm; tension effective depth = 290mm; compression bar effective depth = 60mm; Es = 200 GPa. Use LRFD in the analysis. Use the same beam lengths and loadings as in Problem 1. 

Beam lengths and loadings of Problem 1:

275mm x 330mm (WxH) has the following properties:
f'c = 29 MPa
fy = 400 MPa
clear cover = 40mm 
The beam is reinforced by 4-20mm bar (arranged in a single line with adequate spacing in between), 10mm diameter stirrups, and clear cover of 40mm.
