Question: A singly reinforced concrete rectangular section is shown in Figure A 1 with an effective depth, d = 4 0 0 mm . Given Fc

A singly reinforced concrete rectangular section is shown in Figure A1 with an effective depth, d=400mm.Given Fc'=32MPa, fsy =500MPa. Es =200,000MPa.
A) Determine the maximum area of tensile steel reinforcement, Ast that the engineer can design for to ensure an under-reinforced section.
B) Determine the maximum ultimate moment capacity for this under-reinforced section using the limiting concrete strain criterion of 0.003.
