 Q2. A rectangular beam has a clear span of 25 ft.

Q2. A rectangular beam has a clear span of 25 ft. long, is 15 in. wide with an effective depth of 24 in. It supports a uniformly distributed dead load of 5.55 kips/ft and live load of 9.95 kips/ft. Determine the design factored shear at the critical section and compute the nominal shear strength of the concrete. Finally, design the beam for shear reinforcement and draw the detailing of the reinforcements. The specified compressive strength of the concrete f'. = 4500 psi. (5 Marks) Wp=5.55 k/ft W1=9.95 k/ft 24 in 25 ft 15 in
