Step 1
Answer
We know that Nominal Moment capacity of singly reinforced beam is given by Mn = As*Fy*z
As = area of steel
Fy = yield strength of grade 60 steel
d = effective depth
z = arm
(1) we are given
As = 4 - #8
As = 3.14 in2
Fy = 60000 psi (grade 60 steel)
z = d -
d = 24 - 2.5
d= 21.5 in
depth of compression stress block is given by a =
f'c = 4000 psi
b = 12 in
a =
a = 4.62 in
substitute the values to get 'Mn'
Mn = As*Fy*(d-)
Mn = 3.14*60000*(21.5-)
Mn = 3615396 lb-in
Mn = 301.283 K-ft
" Nominal Moment capacity = 301.283 K-ft "
