A 300mm x 500mm beam section is used for a 4.2 m simple span is reinforced with 2-20mmØ at the top and 4-20mmØ at the bottom. The beam is carrying a total ultimate of 302 kN/m. The 10mmØ 3-legged stirrups are detailed 1 @ 50 mm, 10 @ 150mm, REST @ 250mm O.C. The concrete used has strength of 27.6 MPa and the yield strength of 415 MPa for both main and shear reinforcement.
