A rectangular reinforced concrete beam has b=300mm and d=480mm, concrete strength f'c=34 mpa and steel yield strength fy=415 MPa. Compression reinforcement, if necessary, will be placed 70 mm from the extreme concrete in compression. For this problem, the dead load moment is 140 kn-m and the live load moment is 180 kn-m. a.) what is the value of the required moment in kn-m? b.) what is the value of the maximum steel ratio when the beam is singly reinforced? c.) what is the required tension steel area in mm^2?
