A concrete overhang beam with the section shown is to support a 150 mm thick concrete slab with a tributary width of 2.70 m. The beam also supports a 3.20 m height of 100 mm thick concrete partition wall. Unit weight of concrete is taken to be 24 kN/m. Determine the maximum fiber stresses (tensile & compressive) due to the imposed dead loads. Draw the complete V&M diagrams.
