Question
A beam with a simple span of 6 m carries a dead load of 16.36 KN/m exclusive of
its own weight and a live load of 40 KN/m as shown. fe =21 MPA, f, =415 MPa,
weight of concrete = 23.5 KN/m? The beam has a width of 400 mm and total
thickness of 600 mm with effective depth of 540 mm. it is reinforced by 5 - 28 mm
o bars. Determine whether the beam is safe to carry the given loads.
LL = 40 KN/m
1.80 m
4.20 m
16.36 KN/m (exclusive of weight)
