A simply supported beam 300 mm wide, 500 mm deep and spans 5 m supports a service super imposed dead load of 6 kN/m and service live load of 9 kN/m. Concrete strength f’c = 21 MPa and steel yield strength fy = 415 MPa. Concrete cover to bar centroid is 70 mm. Determine the required amount of tensile reinforcement in mm^2 as per provisions of NSCP 2015. Write your final answer to the nearest whole number.
