A 10m simply supported beam has a uniform distributed deadload of 12.5 kN/m across its span and a 78.125 kN concentrated live load acted in the midpoint of the structure. The 275mm x 330mm (WxH) beam has the following properties:

  • f’c = 29 MPa
  • fy = 400 MPa
  • clear cover = 40mm

The beam is reinforced by 4-20mm bar (arranged in a single line with adequate spacing in between), 10mm diameter stirrups, and clear cover of 40mm. Determine if the beam can support the applied loads. Use LRFD.
