The box section shown in Figure 1 has a central void that is 12 in. wide x 20 in. deep. fe fr = 3,200 psi = 60,000 psi b= b = 24 in. h A₁ = 32 in. = 6 #10 bars 164 b) Determine the nominal moment strength (M.). +6+ 20" 32" Figure 1: Typical Beam Section The following items need to be calculated to determine the design moment strength of the section: a) Determine if the depth of the compression block (a) is smaller than the top flange thickness of 6 inches. If the depth of the compression block is larger than the top flange thickness of 6 inches, determine a.
