Given: A rectangular reinforced concrete girder with a simple span of $32\text{'}$ is required to support $.9klf$ of superimposed dead load and $1\mathrm{.}2klf$ of live load. The concrete strength is $4,000$psi and the yield strength of the steel is $60$ksi

Find:

A$)$Design the beam dimensions using $=0\mathrm{.}4p_b$ as a starting point.

B$)$Design the tension reinforcement, use a single layer of bars.

C$)$Design the shear reinforcement for the beam.

D$)$Assuming that none of the attached nonstructural elements are going to be damaged by excessive deflections, calculate the appropriate deflections and check against the code requirements. Comment on your results. Assume live load is applied at $3$ months and that $30\%$ of the live load is sustained.
