Question: Problem II ( 4 0 Points ) : A 1 4 in 1 1 in reinforced concrete is shown below. The beam is reinforced for

Problem II (40 Points):
A 14 in 11 in reinforced concrete is shown below. The beam is reinforced for tension (3) #6 bars.
The concrete has a compressive strength of f'c=4,000, and grade 60 steel is used for the
reinforcement.
Provide the following information:
a) Find the moment capacity of the beam. Verify your assumption of under or over
reinforced in the problem.
b) Find the area of steel needed to balance the beam (i.e. concrete crushes at same time
steel yields)
