Question: a reinforced concrete rectangular beam has dimensions 1 8 wide by 2 6 deep and is subjected to loads that generate the beam

a reinforced concrete rectangular beam has dimensions 18" wide by 26" deep and is subjected to loads that generate the beam bending moment, mu=550 ft kip. Assume the beam effective depth, d=23". calculate area of reinforcing bars that is required to resist the beam bending moment. then, choose the reinforcing bar size and determine how many bars should be used to provide the required area.
