Introduction

Slide No. 1
ENCE 355 Assakkaf
Bending moment produces bending

strains on a beam, and consequently
compressive and tensile stresses.
Under positive moment (as normally the
case), compressive stresses are
produced in the top of the beam and
tensile stresses are produced in the
bottom.
Bending members must resist both
compressive and tensile stresses.

Because concrete is weak in tension,
embedded steel bars are placed in the

Methods of Analysis and Design
ENCE 355 Assakkaf
Elastic Design
Elastic design is considered valid for the
homogeneous plain concrete beam as long
as the tensile stress does not exceed the
modulus of rupture fr.
Elastic design can also be applied to a
reinforced concrete beam using the
working stress design (WSD) approach.
Slide No. 7
ENCE 355 Assakkaf
WSD Assumptions
1. A plain section before bending remains
plane after bending.
2. Stress is proportional to strain (Hookes
Law).
3. Tensile stress for concrete is considered
zero and reinforcing steel carries all the
tension.
4. The bond between the concrete and steel
is perfect, so no slip occurs.
Slide No. 8
ENCE 355 Assakkaf
Strength Design Method

This method is the modern approach for
the analysis and design of reinforced
concrete.
The assumption are similar to those
outlined for the WSD with one exception:
Compressive concrete stress is approximately
proportional to strain up to moderate loads. As
the load increases, the approximate
proportionality ceases to exit, and the stress
diagram takes a shape similar to the concrete
stress-strain curve of the following figure.

Example 1
A rectangular beam, as shown
in Fig. 1, has the dimensions b
= 10 in.,h = 25 in., and d = 23
in., and is reinforced with three
No. 8 bars. The concrete
cylinder strength f c is 4000 psi,
and the tensile strength in
bending (modulus of rupture) is
475 psi. The yield point of the
steel fy is 60,000 psi.
Determine the stresses caused
by a bending moment M = 45

for concrete is 144 lb/ft3.

Strength Design
If the distribution of concrete compression
stresses at or near ultimate load (Fig. 2),
had a well- defined and invariable shapeparabolic it would be possible to derive a
completely rational theory of ultimate
bending stress.
This theory has been well established and
incorporated in the ACI Manual.
The basic assumptions follows.

Assumptions
Q
Slide No. 29
ENCE 355 Assakkaf
Basic Assumption:
1. A plane section before bending remains
plane after bending.
2. Stresses and strain are approximately
proportional up to moderate loads
(concrete stress 0.5 f c ). When the
load is increased, the variation in the
concrete stress is no longer linear.
3. Tensile strength of concrete is neglected
in the design of reinforced concrete
beams.

Assumptions
Q
Slide No. 30
ENCE 355 Assakkaf
Basic Assumption (contd):

4. The maximum usable concrete
compressive strain at the extreme fiber is
assumed equal to 0.003 (Fig. 3)
5. The steel is assumed to be uniformly
strained to the strain that exists at the
level of the centroid of the steel. Also if
the strain in the steel s is less than the
yield strain of the steel y, the stress in
the steel is Es s. If s y, the stress in
steel will be equal to fy (Fig. 4)
