A reinforced concrete beam has a width of 400 mm and a total depth of 550 mm. The longitudinal bars at the top are 2 – 28 mm and 4 – 32 mm at the bottom. Concrete strength is f’c = 24 MPa and steel yield strength fy = 300 MPa. Steel cover is 70 mm and modular ratio is 9. What is the transformed moment of inertia? What is the moment capacity? What is the safest uniformly distributed load that the beam can carry if the length of the simply supported beam is 8 m.
