Problem # 2. A reinforced concrete beam has a width of 300 mm with an effective depth of 575 mm. It is reinforced with 3-32 mm dia. at the bottom. fc'=27.6 MPa, fy = 414 MPa. Balanced steel ratio p = 0.0285. a. Determine the depth of compression block. b. Determine the moment capacity using reduction factor of 0.90. c. Determine the super-imposed uniform live load it could carry in kPa, besides a dead load of 20 kN/m including its own weight if it has a simple span of 6 m. and a spacing of 1.8 m.
