Objectives
Compute cracking moment of a concrete beam
Compute stresses in cracked concrete beams
Given:
f'c=5,000
fy=60ksi
Es=29,000ksi
Concrete unit weight, w=150pcf
Beam As=()2
The centroid of the reinforcing steel is located 3" above the bottom of the
beam.
The beam width, b=16"
The beam depth, h=25"
Find:
The moment in kip-ft required to crack the beam. Use a modulus of rupture,
fr=7.5fc'2
Compute the maximum allowable moment in kip-ft, using allowable stress
design and a factor of safety of 2.0 for both the concrete stress )=(f'd2
and reinforcing steel stress )=(fy2. Assume that the section is cracked
(i.e. concrete has zero tension stress). Indicate if the maximum allowable
moment is controlled by concrete allowable stress or the steel allowable
stress. Use Ec=33w1.5fc'2 where Ec is in ksi, w is in pef and fc' is in psi
