Q1: Short answer (24% Total)
1.a. Increasing the effective flexural depth of the section, increases the section moment strength without decreasing the section ductility. (TF)
1.b. If compression reinforcement is added to a beam, it has very little influence on the flexural capacity and decreases the long-term deflections. (TF)
1.c. The modulus of elasticity of concrete depends on the compressive strength of concrete. (TF)
1.d. For a nonprestressed cast-in-place beam that is exposed to weather, the minimum cover specified by the ACI 318-19 code that must be provided to #9 reinforcing bars used as longitudinal reinforcement is 3 inches. (TF)
1.e. The Tension-controlled failure mode for beam elements in flexure that satisfies the AC1318-19 code is steel yielding (TF)
