Question: Q 1 . ( 3 0 pts ) A concrete floor slab is reinforced with 5 / 8 - inch - diameter steel rods placed

Q1.(30 pts)
A concrete floor slab is reinforced with 5/8-inch-diameter steel rods placed 1.5 in . above the lower face of the slab and spaced 6 in . on centers. The modulus of elasticity is 29106psi for steel and 3.6106 psi for concrete. With an applied bending moment of 50 kip .in for 1-ft width of the slab, determine a) The maximum stress in the concrete
b) The maximum stress in the steel
c) The value of ? indicated on the diagram
Q2(10 pts) TRUE/FALSE
a) When the maximum stress is equal to the ultimate strength of the material, failure occurs.
b)Mu is referred to as the universal bending moment.
c) Concrete beams subjected to bending moments are reinforced using steel rods because steel rods carry the entire tensile load below the neutral surface.
d) A beam section with a larger section modulus will have a lower maximum stress.
e) For a member in pure bending, the moment of the couple is the section bending moment.
