A rectangular concrete beam has a width of 300mm and an effective depth of 600mm. The beam is reinforced with tension reinforcements having a total area of 2413mm2 with steel covering of 80mm. The beam is subjected to a factored shear force of 160KN at its critical point at a distance d from the support, having a span of 6m. If the beam is subjected to a tensile axial force of 270KN and F’c = 27.6MPa, Fy = 415MPa, and Fyt = 270MPa and using normal weight concrete: a. Determine the maximum shear strength of concrete. b. Determine the spacing of 10mm reinforcement due to this load.

Question
A rectangular concrete beam has a width of 300mm and an
effective depth of 600mm. The beam is reinforced with tension
reinforcements having a total area of 2413mm2 with steel covering
of 80mm. The beam is subjected to a factored shear force of
160KN at its critical point at a distance d from the support, having
a span of 6m. If the beam is subjected to a tensile axial force of
270KN and F’c = 27.6MPa, Fy = 415MPa, and Fyt = 270MPa and
using normal weight concrete:
a. Determine the maximum shear strength of concrete.
b. Determine the spacing of 10mm reinforcement due to this load.
