A simply supported rectangular beam of length L=5.4m has a width of b=395mm and an effective depth of d=311m. Compression steel bars are placed at a distance d′=155mm from the extreme concrete compressive fiber. The beam supports service dead loads of Wd=27.5KN/m and Wl=35.5KN/m, respectively. Use fc′ = 28MPa and fy= 420 MPa. For the reinforcements, use 4 25 mm tension steel bars and 4 12 mm compression steel bars.

d=311m. Compression steel bars are placed at a distance d′=155mm from the extreme concrete compressive
fiber. The beam supports service dead loads of Wd=27.5KN/m and Wl=35.5KN/m, respectively. Use fc′ = 28MPa
and fy= 420 MPa. For the reinforcements, use 4 25 mm tension steel bars and 4 12 mm
compression steel bars.
