A rectangular concrete beam of width b= 600 mm, is limited by
architectural considerations to a maximum total depth h= 400 mm. It
= 542 kN.m. Design the umust carry a total factored load moment
Mflexural reinforcement for this member, using compression steel if
necessary. Allow 75 mm to the center of the bars from the
compression or tension face of the beam. Material strengths are
??′=27.6 ??? ??? ??=413 ?? ?.
Select reinforcement to provide the needed areas, and show a sketch
of your final design, including provision for No. 13 stirrups.
