A rectangular beam reinforced for both tension and compression bars has an area of 1450 mm² for compression bars and 4350 mm² for tension bars. The tension bars and compression bars are placed at a distance of 600 mm and 62.5 mm respectively from the top of the beam. The beam width 300 mm, fc’ = 21 MPa, fy = 415 MPa and tension steel covering is 60 mm. If it is 8 m-simply-supported beam that carries three concentrated service live loads P applied at three quarter points of the beam (except at the supports), neglecting the self weight of the beam, determine the maximum value of service load P in kiloNewtons.

A rectangular beam reinforced for both tension and compression bars
has an area of 1450 mm² for compression bars and 4350 mm² for
tension bars. The tension bars and compression bars are placed at a distance of 600 mm and 62.5 mm respectively from the top of the
beam. The beam width 300 mm, fc’ = 21 MPa, fy = 415 MPa and
tension steel covering is 60 mm.
If it is 8 m-simply-supported beam that carries three concentrated
service live loads P applied at three quarter points of the beam (except
at the supports), neglecting the self weight of the beam, determine the
maximum value of service load P in kiloNewtons.
