PROBLEM 6.2: A 300mm x 600mm reinforced concrete beam has an effective depth of 525mm. Longitudinal reinforcement to resist torsion is 28mm0 arrange as shown. Concrete strength f = 24MPa and steel yield strength for longitudinal bars is fy 415MPa. Use 12mm stirrups with fyt = 415MPa. Spacing of vertical stirrups is 100mm. - Compute the factored torsional moment of the section where torsion can be neglected. Check the adequacy of the section if a factored torsional moment of 40kNm is applied to the beam. Determine the design torsional strength of the beam section. a. b. C. 600mm 40 40, 300mm 40

Design criteria for structural loading

The different loads such as loads due to self-weight (dead load) and external loads such as live load, wind loads, seismic load, snow load, and other loads and load combinations that influence the design of a building are called structural loading. The nature of the applied load differs from changes in the location, design, and type of materials used. The design criteria require that structures must be designed and constructed to be able to withstand all load types that are expected to act upon the structure and render its usage for the designated purpose. The structural members such as beams, slabs, columns, and foundations help the structure to withstand the applied load. There are different institutes such as ASCE and ACI that provide building design codes to assure minimum safety requirements and quality of the structures.
