Design the reinforcement of a rectangular beam to resist a dead load moment of 200kN.m (including its own weight) and a live load moment of 300kN.m. The beam is limited in size to 350mm by 600mm overall depth. Steel covering from centroid of bars to outermost fiber is 100mm for both tension and compression reinforcement. Use fc'=27.5Mpa, fy = 414MPa, 20mm bars A.  As'= 7 of 20mm and As=14 of 20mm B.   As' = 9 of 20mm and As=18 of 20mm C.   As'= 5 of 20mm and As=10 of 20mm D.    As' = 3 of 20mm and As=6 of 20mm

Design the reinforcement of a rectangular beam to resist a dead load moment of 200kN.m (including its own weight) and a live load moment of 300kN.m. The beam is limited in size to 350mm by 600mm overall depth. Steel covering from centroid of bars to outermost fiber is 100mm for both tension and compression reinforcement. Use fc'=27.5Mpa, fy = 414MPa,
20mm bars

A.  As'= 7 of 20mm and As=14 of 20mm
B.   As' = 9 of 20mm and As=18 of 20mm
C.   As'= 5 of 20mm and As=10 of 20mm
