A fixed-ended beam is to be designed with using the maximum Moment throughout the span of
the beam. The beam, 5 meters long, supports a super-imposed dead load of 20kN/m and an
occupancy load of 30kN/m. Due to architectural reasons, the dimensions of the beam must be
limited to 175mm x 300mm. For simplification, the initial ratio of breadth-to-effective depth must
be 0.75 (before rounding-off). Design the beam in using the following specifications:
fy
345Mpa
20.7Mpa
f'c
MRSB
16mm
Stirrups
10mm
Dimensions of the beam must be rounded off to multiples of 10mm.
-Answer the problem. Complete Solution must be provided, in a step-by-step manner.
-Important values must be underlined, and the final answer must be boxed.
-All computed values must be in at least four (4) decimal places.
-The final details of the beam design must be drawn.
-All assumptions must be listed down at the start of the solution. Box all your assumptions.
