beam supports service dead loads of wD and wl, respectively. Use fc'= 28 MPa and fy = 420 MPa.
For the reinforcements,
use 4 20 mm tension steel bars and 4 10 mm compression steel bars.
b= 390 mm
d= 615 mm
d'= 165 mm
L= 5.85 m
Wd= 27.79 kN/m
WI= 32. 25 KN/m
Questions
1. Calculate the height of the neutral axis measured from the extreme compression fiber.
2. Calculate the strength reduction factor for the given beam.
B. Calculate the design moment for the given beam.
