#1 A T-beam for a floor system has a slab thickness of 100mm and a total depth
of 550mm. It has a web thickness of 300mm. The T-beam is cast
monolithically with the slab. The beam has a simple span of 6m. with a
spacing of 2.4m. center to center. The beam carries a live load moment of
184 kN.m and a dead load moment of 84 kN.m.fc'=20.7MPa,
fy=413.7MPa. Assume steel covering of 65mm.
(1) Determine the effective width of flange.
(2) Determine the depth of compression block.
(3) Determine the steel area required for tension only.
#2 A reinforced concrete T-beam has an effective depth of 600mm and is
reinforced with 8-28mmO? bars. The web width is 300mm and has a
flange thickness of 90mm. The beam has a span of 5.8m. and has a
spacing center to center equal to 1.5m.fc'=21MPa and fy =415MPa.
(1) Which of the following gives the effective width of the flange.
(2) Which of the following gives the depth of the compression block.
(3) Which of the following gives the nominal moment capacity of the beam.
#3 A T-section has a flange width of 750mm, thickness of flange is 50mm.
Effective depth is 750mm with a width of web section of 350mm. The beam
is subjected to a factored moment Mu=816kN.m.
fc'=20.7MPa,fy=276.5MPa.
(1) Compute the nominal moment capacity of the overhanging portion of the
section.
(2) Compute the depth of compression block.
(3) Compute the area of reinforcement needed for the T-section.
