Question: Material: C 3 0 S 4 2 0 Concrete cover: d ' = 4 0 m m c u = 0 . 0 0 3

Material: C30S420
Concrete cover: d'=40mm
cu=0.003
fck=30MPa
fyk=420MPa
a) The rectangular RC beam in the figure is subjected to pure bending. Calculate the moment capacities and curvature values for
i) the rebar yielding My-O?y,(Assume concrete stress distribution is linear.)
ii) the ultimate strength conditions Mu-O?u,
and draw the moment-curvature curve by using the calculated values. Determine the section ductility ratio of this section.
b) For the same section, if the half amount of the tension reinforcement is added as compression reinforcement
