Expert Solution
Step 1

Given data:

Total depth of the beam, D=20 in

Diameter of main reinforcing bar,d=98=1.125 in

Center to center spacing, S= 3d

Bar cover=1-1/2 in=1.5 in

Diameter of #4 number shear reinforcing stirrups, ds=48=0.5 in

It is asked to determine the minimum width of Girder to fit longitudinal bars.
