CE 302 - Conc - Lecture 3 - Wk3

This document provides a 3-part summary of a lecture on designing rectangular reinforced concrete beams: 1) It introduces the topic of designing ultimate strength of reinforced concrete beams and provides context about the lecturer. 2) It presents two tutorial problems - the first determines steel reinforcement required for a concrete beam given design parameters, and the second estimates the size of a concrete beam and determines reinforcement area given loads and materials. 3) It concludes by reminding students there will be practice problems to reinforce the lecture concepts.
