DESIGN OF SECTION:
Effective flange width for the T-beam section will be determined as per Clause 305.15.2 of IRC Bridg
Effective flange width = thickness of web + 0.2 x 0.7 x effective span
Effective flange width = 3.8 m
Allowing a distance of 120 mm from the bottom of T-beam to the centre of gravity of rods, and ass
the centre of compression to be 120 mm below the top, and allowing a stress of 180 MPa as perm
stress at the centre of gravity of the steel area, area of steel required
Provide 12mm dia 5 nos of 2 rows at top and bottom as main reinforcement
Provide 12mm dia two legged stirrups at 150 mm spacing
irders of adequate stiffness.
