Reinforce concrete design

Transcribed Image Text:A reinforced concrete beam is 350 mm wide and 600 mm deep. The beam is simply
supported over a span of 8 m and carries a uniform dead load of 11 kN/m including its
own weight and a uniform live load of 15 KN/m. The beam is reinforced tension bars of
530 mm. Modulus of elasticity of concrete Ec=21650 MPa, Es=200 GPa, &
a(allow)=L/240
Required: (1) Calculate the maximum instantaneous deflection due to service loads; (2)
Calculate the deflection for the same loads after five years assuming that 40% of the
live load is sustained; (3) Is the beam adequate or not against deflection? (Justify your
answer)
