a) Design a cantilever beam with a span length of 2.6m. The beam is exposed to 34kN/m dead load and 20kN/m live load. Height, width and concrete cover of the beam are 69cm and 30cm and 4cm respectively. Use C35 concrete and S420 steel and choose Ø16 bars. b) Calculate the spacing between the bars and indicate whether the bars can be placed as a single layer or not. Assume 2.1 cm concrete cover on the sides, 25mm maximum aggregate size and Ø10 stirrups. c) Draw the cross-section of the beam showing all reinforcement and dimensions. Use Ø12 hanger bars if required.
