A rectangular beam with b= 250mm and d=460mm is reinforced for tension only with 3-25mm bars. The beam is simply supported over a span of 6m and carries a uniform deadload of 680 N/m including its own weight. Calculate the uniform liveload that the beam can carry. Assume fy = 278 Mpa and f'c = 30 Mpa.
