CIVENG 3J04 - Reinforced Concrete Design

To be submitted through Avenue to Learn


Due: Wednesday, February 12, 2025 - 11:59 pm

A2.1- For a reinforced concrete beam (typical cross-section is shown in Figure 1), 400 mm

a) Determine the maximum moment that this beam can resist before cracking;
b) Determine the beam moment of inertia after cracking.

600 mm
Given: The beam is reinforced with 4-25M longitudinal bars
f'c = 35 MPa
fy = 400 MPa Figure 1

A2.2- For the given reinforced concrete section shown in Figure 2,


a) Determine the balanced reinforced amount for this section;
b) Calculate the ultimate moment resistance of the section if As = 8-20M. What is the 400 mm

mode of failure?
c) Calculate the ultimate moment resistance of the section if As = 8-30M. Determine the

strain in the steel reinforcement.

Given: f'c = 30 MPa

A2.3- a simply supported reinforced concrete beam of rectangular cross-section is shown in Figure 3. The beam
supports a uniform dead load of 20 kN/m (excluding the beam self-weight) and a uniform live load of 20 kN/m.
The beam width is restricted to 400 mm. The maximum aggregate size is 20 mm. We are using 10M bars for
stirrups and 25M bars for tension steel. Concrete is type N with f'c = 35 MPa and fy = 400 MPa. The beam needs
to have 2hr fire rating.
Design the beam for the given load, considering the reinforcement ratio ρ < 0.5 ρb

WDL= 20 kN/m
WLL= 20 kN/m
