Course: Tutorial: CEB706 - Designed of Reinforced & Pre-Cast Concrete Structures 03 - Module 3

This document contains a tutorial for a reinforced concrete structures design course. It includes 3 questions about calculating properties of reinforced concrete beam sections, such as required steel area, design moment capacity, and neutral axis depth. Question 1 asks to calculate these values when the neutral axis is at its limiting depth. Question 2 asks to calculate the minimum effective depth of a beam section if the steel ratio is 1% of the concrete area. Question 3 asks to calculate the neutral axis depth and design moment capacity for a beam section with varying steel areas.

Assume the specific weight of the reinforced concrete as 24 kN/m

Q1:
A rectangular beam section has b=350 mm, d=540 mm and f’c=40 MPa. Calculate the
required steel area when the neutral axis is at its limiting depth. Calculate the steel area (Ast)
*
and the design moment capacity (M ) of the section.
Q2:
A simply supported beam has a span of 7200 mm, a dead load of 20 kN/m and a live load of
18 kN/m. The width of the beam is 300 mm and f’c=32 MPa. If the steel area is 1% of the
effective area of the concrete, what is the minimum effective depth of the section?

Q3:
A rectangular beam section has b=300 mm, d=450 mm. The beam has constructed using
Grade 32 concrete (f’c=32 MPa). Calculate the neutral axis depth (x) and the design moment
*
capacity (M ) of the section for following cases?
