5. Write the primary reasons that we provide cover (concrete between the surface of the slab
or beam and the reinforcing bars). (2pts)

Part-II Workout – (Open book) Time allowed: 2:40hrs

6. Figure 1 below is a first floor plan of a reinforced concrete office building. During construction,
slabs and beams are cast monolithically. The overall thickness of the RC solid slab is required to be
150 mm. Given that a characteristic live load of 3kN/m 2, the design life = 50 years, fire resistance =
REI 60, exposure class = XC1, characteristic concrete strength = C25/30, high yield steel strength =
S-450 N/mm2 and diameter of reinforcement = 10 mm.
a) Design the reinforcement and show schematic detailing for slab panel-1. (10pts)
b) Find the load transferred from slab to the abeam axis-1. (4pts)
c) Check the deflection requirement for panel-1 and write your judgment. (5pts)

7. The beam cross-section shown in figure 2 is intended to resist the design moment 75KNm and the
design shear force 40kN. The concrete grade and reinforcing steel grade used is C30/35 and S450
respectively. Moment redistribution is not required.
a) Determine the number of flexural reinforcement if ∅ 16 bar is used. (10pts)
b) Design a shear reinforcement if ∅ 8 link bar is used. (7pts)
c) Show the beam section detailing. (4pts)
