Question: The tensile - reinforced rectangular beam shown below is made using steel with y = 6 0 ksi and modulus of elasticity, ES = 2

The tensile-reinforced rectangular beam shown below is made using steel with y =60 ksi and modulus of elasticity, ES=29000 ksi. Assume an elastic plastic curve for steel reinforcement. The concrete used has the stress-strain curve shown below with limit of elastic response at a strain of 0.0005, maximum stress at 0.002, and ultimate strain of 0.003.(a)
fr=450
(b)
The concrete elastic modulus is Ec =4000 ksi, and modulus of rupture is r =450 psi.
Based on the above given information,
Determine the moment and unit curvature at a point corresponding to:
1.
Before and after cracking
2.
When fc =0.45 fc
3.
When fs = fy
4.
When c =0.003
