1. A rectangular beam with b 16 in., d-17 in., and h 20 in. has a clear span of 24 ft. as shown below. The beam has 1 ft. of bearing at each end, so for analysis purposes it is treated as a 25 ft. simple span (to center of bearing at each end). The beam supports an unfactored concentrated live load of P-65 kips. The beam is reinforced with 6-#10 longitudinal bars and #4 stirrups. Material strengths are fc-4,000,...
A rectangular steel-reinforced concrete beam supports a uniformly distributed load of 875 lb/ft (including the beam weight) for a span of 24 ft. The breadth of the beam is 12 in. Concrete with a specified compressive of 3000 lb/sqin and grade 60 steel for tensile and web reinforcement are specified. Four longitudinal tensile bars are to be used. If required, No. 3 stirrups will be used. Determine the minimum effective depth of the beam section (Round to the nearest inch...
Figure 2 shows a simply supported beam and the cross section at mid span. The beam supports a uniform service (unfactored) dead load consisting of its own weight plus 1.4 kips/ft and a uniform service (unfactored) live load of 1.5 kips/ft. The concrete strength is 3500 psi, and the yield strength of the reinforcement is 60,000 psi. The concrete is normal-weight concrete. For the midspan section shown in Figure 2, compute фМп and show that it exceeds Mu. WD 1.4...
A rectangular beam having b=16 in and d=26 in spans 28 ft face to face of simple supports. It is reinforced for flexure with 6#11 bars that continue uninterrupted to the ends of the span. It is to carry service dead load 2.0 kips/ft (including self weight) and service live load 3.6 kips/ft, both uniformly distributed along the span. Design the shear reinforcement using vertical U stirrups. Economize the spacing of stirrups in appropriate number of bands. Material strengths are...
A rectangular reinforced concrete beam of span 16 ft supports a concentrated load of 40 kips at mid-point of the beam and a uniformly-distributed load of 4 kips/ft over the entire span. Given: (a) The breadth of the beam is 18 inches. (b) Concrete compressive strength, fc, is 3500 psi. (c) Rebar is Grade 40 steel i) Determine the maximum moment and maximum shear acting on the beam. ii) Determine the minimum effective depth 'd' of the beam section (rounded...
A rectangular reinforced concrete beam of span 16 ft supports a concentrated load of 40 kips at mid-point of the beam and a uniformly-distributed load of 4 kips/ft over the entire span.

15 points 9. A rectangular concrete beam of width b=24 in. is limited by architectural considerations to a maximum total depth h=16 in. It must carry a total factored load moment Mu 400 k-ft. Design the flexural reinforcement for this member, using compression steel if necessary. Allow 3-in, to the center of the bars from the compression or tension face of the beam. Material strengths are fy=60 ksi and fc=4 ksi. Select reinforcement to provide the needed areas, complete necessary...
27.2 Much as in Exercise 27.1, a rectangular steel-reinforced concrete beam supports a uni- formly distributed load of 4.5 kip/ft (including the beam weight) for a span of 28 ft. The breadth (b) of the beam is 16 in. The effective depth (d) of the beam section was rounded a compressive strength (f) of 4000 Ib/in2 and grade 60 steel for tensile and web reinforcement are specified. Six longitudinal tensile bars are to be used. Specify the gange number of...
A rectangular beam having b-10 in. and d= 17.5 in. spans 15 ft face to face of simple supports. It is reinforced for flexure with three No. 9 (No. 29) bars that continue uninterrupted to the ends of the span. It is to carry service dead load D 1.27 kips/ft (including self-weight) and service live load L -3.70 kips/ft, both uniformly distributed along the span. Design the shear reinforcement, using No. 3 (No. 10) vertical U stirrups. The more approximate...
Qu estion 1: (25 points) The beam shown below has a span of 13 ft and is reinforced with bars that ext end 8 inch beyond the face of the support. The centerline of the longitudinal bars nearest the side ace (i.e., the "outside bars") is 3.5 inch from, the side face as shown below. The concrete has a compressive strength of 3.0 ksi, and the reinforcement is Grade 60. The beam is loaded with a distributed live load (w)...
