Deflection

For rectangular beam,


1. The final deflection should not exceed span/250
2. Deflection after construction of finishes and
partitions should not exceed span/500 or
20mm, whichever is the lesser, for spans up to
10 m.
BS 8110 uses an approximate method based on
permissible ratios of the span/effective depth.

Deflection (clause 3.4.6.3)


For beam with span less than 10 m

This basic span/effective depth ratio is used in


determining the depth of the reinforced
concrete beam.

Reinforcement details (clause 3.12, BS


8110)
The BS 8110 spell out a few rules to follow
regarding:
1. Maximum and minimum reinforcement area
2. Spacing of reinforcement
3. Curtailment and anchorage of reinforcement
4. Lapping of reinforcement

Reinforcement areas (clause 3.12.5.3


and 3.12.6.1, BS 8110)
Minimum area of reinforcement is provided to
control cracking of concrete.
Too large an area of reinforcement will hinder
proper placing and compaction of concrete
around reinforcement.
For rectangular beam with b (width) and h
(depth), the area of tensile reinforcement, As
should lie:
0.24% bh As 4% bh
for fy = 250 N/mm2
0.13% bh As 4% bh
for fy = 500 N/mm2

Spacing of reinforcement (clause


3.12.11.1, BS 8110)
The minimum spacing between tensile
reinforcement is provided to achieve good
compaction. Maximum spacing is specified to
control cracking.
For singly reinforcement simply supported beam
the clear horizontal distance between tension bars
should follow:
hagg + 5 mm or bar size sb 280 mm fy = 250
N/mm2
hagg + 5 mm or bar size sb 155 mm fy = 500
N/mm2 (hagg is the maximum aggregate size)

Curtailment (clause 3.12.9, BS 8110)

The area tensile reinforcement is calculated


based on the maximum bending moment at midspan. The bending moment reduces as it
approaches to the supports. The area of tensile
reinforcement could be reduced (curtailed) to
achieve economic design.

Curtailment (clause 3.12.9, BS 8110)


For beam subjected
to predominantly
UDL
Simply
supported
beam
(Chanakya Arya, 2009)

Continuous
beam

Anchorage (clause 3.12.9, BS 8110)


At the end support, to achieve proper anchorage
the tensile bar must extend a length equal to one
of the following:
1. 12 times the bar size beyond the centre line of
the support
2. 12 times the bar size plus d/2 from the face of
support

(Chanakya Arya, 2009)

Anchorage (clause 3.12.9, BS 8110)


In case of space limitation, hooks
or bends in the reinforcement can
be use in anchorage.
If the bends started after the
centre of support, the anchorage
length is at least 4f but not greater
than 12f.
If the hook started before d/2 from
the face of support, the anchorage
length is at least 8r but not greater
than 24f.

Continuous L and T beam


For continuous beam, various loading
arrangement need to be considered to obtain
maximum design moment and shear force.

Continuous L and T beam


The analysis to calculate the bending moment
and shear forces can be carried out by
1. using moment distribution method
2. Provided the conditions in clause 3.4.3 of BS
8110 are satisfied, design coefficients can be
used.

Clause 3.4.3 of BS 8110: Uniformly-loaded continuous beams


with approximately equal spans: moments and
shears

Effective span for continuous beam the effective span should


normally taken as the distance between the centres of supports

L- and T- beam
Beam and slabs are cast monolithically, that is,
they are structurally tied.
At mid-span, it is more economical to design
the beam as an L or T section by including the
adjacent areas of the slab. The actual width of
slab that acts together with the beam is
normally termed the effective flange.

Clause 3.4.1.5: Effective width of


flanged beam

Effective span for continuous beam the effective span


should normally taken as the distance between the centres of
supports

L- and T- beam
The depth of neutral axis in relation to the
depth of the flange will influence the design
process.
The neutral axis
When the neutral axis lies within the flange,
the breadth of the beam at mid-span(b) is
equal to the effective flange width. At the
support of a continuous beam, the breadth is
taken as the actual width of the beam.

L- and T-beam
At the internal supports, the bending moment
is reversed and it should be noted that the
tensile reinforcement will occur in the top half
of the beam and compression reinforcement
in the bottom half of the beam.

Example 3.10 continuous beam design


(Chanakya Arya, 2009)
A typical floor plan of a small building structure is shown in
figure below. Design B1/5 assuming the slab supports an
imposed load of 4 kN/m2 and finishes of 1.5 kN/m2. The
overall sizes of the beams and slab are indicated on the
drawing. The column are 400x400 mm. The characteristic
strength of the concrete is 35 N/mm2 and of the steel
reinforcement is 500 N/mm2. The cover maybe assumed to be
30 mm.

Example 3.10 Design of shear reinforcement


(Chanakya Arya, 2009)

The beam B1/5 does not satisfy the conditions


in clause 3.4.3, the moment and shear force
on the beam can be estimated using moment
distribution method or stiffness method.
Two load cases must be considered: (1)
maximum design load on all spans, (2)
maximum and minimum design loads on the
alternate spans.

Curtailment of steel reinforcement
The simplified rules in clasue 3.12.10.2 do not apply.

Example 3.10 Design of shear reinforcement (Chanakya


Arya, 2009)

Example 3.10 Design of shear reinforcement (Chanakya


Arya, 2009)

From clause 3.12.9.1, the cut off point of the


bars in the tension zone is obtained by
extending the bars an anchorage length in
accordance to Table 3.7 in BS 8110.
For fcu = 35 N/mm2 and fy = 500 N/mm2,
deformed type 2 bars
Anchorage length = 38f
The theoretical cut off point
= 310 + 38 x 25 = 1260 mm
Hence the 2H25 bars can be stopped at, say 1.3
m from support B3
