Question

concrete floor slab 100 mm thick is cast monolithic with concrete beam 2.0 m on centers. The beams have a span of 4.2 m and have a web width of 250 mm, and overall depth of 450 mm. The tensile reinforcement consists of 4-25 mm bars in two rows with 25 mm vertical clear  spacing. Use material strength f’c = 21 MPa and fy = 415 MPa.


 Calculate the following considering a T-geometry;

a) effective flange width of an interior beam in mm 

b) depth of uniform stress block at ultimate stage in mm ( round of to nearest whole number)

c) tensile steel strain compatible with concrete strain if 0.003 ( round if 3 decimal places)
