Assignment No. 1

1. This document contains an assignment on reinforced concrete design with 9 situations involving calculating properties such as effective width, depth of compression block, moment capacity, steel ratio, and load capacity for various beams. 2. The student is asked to solve each situation independently and show their work neatly and organize their solutions. 3. The situations involve beams with different widths, depths, reinforcement, concrete strengths, and load conditions. Properties like neutral axis depth, steel area, and moment capacity are to be calculated.
