a) What maximum nominal moment can the beam carry if it is to be designed as a singly reinforced beam, in kN-m? b)What is the required tension steel area in mm2, at point of maximum positive moment? c)What is the required tension steel area in mm2, at point of maximum negative moment?  

The reinforced concrete propped cantilever beam shown
has a width of 320 mm and an overall depth of 540 mm.
The beam is loaded with uniform dead load of 42 kN/m
(including its own weight) and a uniform live load of 48
kN/m. Concrete strength f'c=21MPA and steel yield
strength fy=415MPA. The concrete cover is 65 mm from the
centroid of the bars. Assume El is constant for the entire
beam.
