Design of Restrained Beam
Example 2
simply supported restrained beam S275 carries a 140 mm thick solid concrete slab along with an
imposed load of 7 kN/m2. The beam span is 7. 2 m and beams are spaced at 3.6 m intervals. Slab
provides continuous lateral restraint. Concrete density is 2400 kg/m3 and deflection limit of
span/360. Determine,
