Figure Q1 shows a cross section for a reinforced concrete beam. The characteristic strengths of the concrete and steel reinforcement are 30 N/mm² and 500 N/mm², respectively. (i) Determine ultimate moment of resistance of the beam. (ii) If the beam is simply supported over a 6 m length and subjected to a concentrated load at the mid-span. Calculate the maximum concentrated load based on the moment capacity in Q1(b)(i). Ignore the self-weight.
