A T-beam for a floor system has a slab thickness of 100 mm and a total depth of 550 mm. It has a web thickness of 300 mm. The T-beam is cast monolithically with the slab. The beam has a simple span of 6 meter with a spacing of 2.4 m center to center. The beam carries a live load moment of 194 kN-m and a dead load moment of 94 kN-m, fc’=20.7 MPa, fy = 413 MPa. Assume steel covering of 65 mm. a. Determine the effective width of flange. b. Determine depth of compression flange. c. Determine the required steel area.
