Question

A nominal 8x24-in. CMU beam is reinforced with No. 9 Grade 60 bars placed at 20 in. from the
compression face of the beam. The beam is required to carry a service dead load of 1 k/ft (including
its self-weight) and a serviced live load of 1.75 k/ft over an effective span of 12 ft. Assuming
f’m=1500 psi, (a) check if the beam is adequate for bending,
(b) check if the beam complies with flexural reinforcement requirements of TMS code,
(c) check if the beam is adequate for shear,
(d) design the beam for shear reinforcement,
and (e)check if a higher compressive strength of masonry can affect your design.
