Expert Solution
Step 1

The code used for the calculation is IS standards.

The self weight of the beam is calculated as,

ws=unit weight of concrete×A=2.40.555×0.3=0.3996 t/m=0.4 t/m

(Since the figure is unclear, so the overall depth of the beam is interpreted as 555 mm).

The total dead load is calculated as,

wd=1.5+0.4=1.9 t/m

The maximum bending moment in a cantilever beam due to combined effect dead load and live load is calculated as,

Mmax=0.51.5wd+1.5wl×L2=0.5×1.51.9+wl×32=1.58.55+4.5wl
