Transcribed Image Text:PROBLEM 2
A beam is reinforced with 6-28mm diameter tension bars in 2 layers with 3 bars per layer (center-to-center distance of 2
layer is 40mm) and if compression reinforcement is required, it will be placed at 1 layer only with a reinforcement
diameter of 25mm. The properties of the beam are as follows:
Beam: bxh = 300mm x 585mm
Length = 8m
Effective concrete covering = 65mm
f'c = 28MPA
fy = 415MPA
Strain of tension steel = 0.005
Deadload = 36KN/m (including self weight)
1. Nominal moment capacity of the beam
2. Safe Live load that the beam can carry
2. No. of 25mm diameter compression steel reinforcement (if needed)
