Question

A reinforced concrete beam, b by h with tensile reinforcement of 6-25mm diameter bars is simply supported on a clear span of 12m. 

Given:

fc = 12 MPa

fs = 140 Mpa

wc = 24 kN/m3

n = 12

b = 331  mm

h = 602  mm

d = 582 mm

determine the ff. 

 

1. Compute the moment capacity of concrete in kN-m.

2. Compute the moment capacity of steel in kN-m.

3. Aside from the uniformly distributed self-weight of the reinforced concrete, what will be the maximum two equal concentrated loads it can carry that will be located at its third points in kN?
