Question: A rectangular beam with width 3 0 0 mm and effective depth 5 0 0 mm is used as a cantilever beam for effective span

A rectangular beam with width 300 mm and effective depth 500 mm is used as a cantilever
beam for effective span of 6m. Determine the maximum imposed udl that can be allowed on
the beam, if the maximum (limiting) percentage of steel is provided as tension reinforcement.
Assume M25 concrete and Fe415 steel and 50 mm effective cover. Also determine the limiting
area of steel that has been provided in the beam.
