Transcribed Image Text:### Problem 4: Calculate the Nominal Strength of the Section
#### Diagram Explanation:
- The diagram depicts a rectangular section with dimensions labeled along its sides.
- The width of the section is 36 inches.
- The height of the section is 12 inches.
- Two rows of reinforcement bars labeled as "#9 BARS" are indicated on both the left and right sides within the section.
- The left side has a reinforcement bar spacing of 2.25 inches from the edge and 2.50 inches between bars.
- The right side has a reinforcement bar spacing of 2.0 inches from the edge and 2.5 inches between bars.
#### Material Properties:
- \( f'_c = 3,000 \) psi (Concrete Compressive Strength)
- \( f_y = 60 \) ksi (Grade 60 Steel Yield Strength)
- \( E_s = 29,000 \) ksi (Modulus of Elasticity for Steel)
These values and dimensions are used to calculate the nominal strength of the section under consideration.
