ic fy Mpa Mpa 20.1 283 1. A 6-m simply supported singly reinforced concrete beam is 400mm wide and effective depth of 500mm. It is reinforced with four pieces #8 bar having an area of 510mm² each bar. It carries a total dead load of 18kN/m and live load of 16kN/m. Using your own values of fc' and fy, find the allowable concentrated load that can be placed on the midspan of the said beam. Note: the phrase total dead load means weight of beam is already included, it is unlike when we say "aside from" or "besides".
