Question: The beams, e . g . , B 1 ( typ . ) , are also cast with fc = 5 , 0 0 0

The beams, e.g., B1(typ.), are also cast with fc =5,000 psi (normal weight concrete, 150 pcf.(B1=0.8). Use d = h -3", for both positive and negative bending.
(a) Determine per ACI318 the effective flange width (be or by) of a typical beam, B1, subjected to positive bending.
(b) Use where applicable a be (or bf) of 76-in [i.e., ignore the one calculated in part (a)], compute the minimum flexural reinforcement required (i.e., As min) and its corresponding design bending (M,) of B1 for positive bending only.
(c) Use where applicable a be (or b,) of 76-in [i.e., ignore the one calculated in part (a)], compute the maximum flexural reinforcement required (i.e., As max) and its corresponding design bending (M.) of B1 for positive bending only. Use & =0.005.
(d) If No.4 U-stirrups at 8" on-center are used for B1, determine the design shear capacity (oV,) of the beam.
The beams, e . g . , B 1 ( typ . ) , are also
