A reinforced concrete beam section is "b" wide and "h" deep. It is to be reinforced with the given diameter and number of pieces below, stirrups is 10 mmØ with clear concrete covering of 40 mm. Consider f'c = 32 MPa and fy = 415 MPa. 1) If the beam is reinforced with 4 - 25mmØ tension steel only, calculate the tension steel strain et. 2) If the beam is reinforced with 6-28mmØ tension steel (in two layers of 3 bars each with 25 mm clear distance between layers), calculate the tension steel strain et. 3) Calculate the flexural strength of the beam in question 2.
