A rectangular beam with a simple span of 6 m, supports a dead load of 17.50 kN/m and a live load of 36.5 kN/m. For architectural reasons the cross section is limited to 300 mm width and a total depth of 540 mm, with an effective depth of 460 mm. The dead load includes the weight of the beam. If f’c = 20.68 MPa, fy = 275.8 MPa. Determine the factored uniform load

Methods to Determine Vertical Stress

The load applied to the soil is transferred to the underground. The presence of water at soil pores and solid grains above the soil are the primary components that are responsible for the effective load transfer. Due to the load acting, the internal component of the soil or the underground formations undergoes deformations or a tectonic shift. The amount of deformation depends upon the amount of load acting on the soil surface, which indeed, depends on the weight of everything present above the soil. Due to this, the underground soil element develops internal stresses which try to resist the tectonic changes.
