Example : design a rectangular sections for the
beam shown in the figure, loads, and ρ values
shown. Beam weights are not included in the
loads given. Show sketches of cross sections
including bar sizes, arrangements, and spacing.
Assume concrete weighs 23.5 kN/m3. fy = 420
MPa and fc = 28 MPa, ρ= 0.01415,reduction
factor ()=0.9, h-d=75 mm, beam weight = 6
kN/m.

1.Beam weight = area * density =350*700*10-6*23.5 kN/m3
=5.758 kN/m < assumed (6 kN/m)------ okay
2. =

3. = 3276*420/(0.85*28*350)=165.17 mm
• = 0.9*3276 m*420(625-165.17/2)= 671.7*106 (*mm2* 106 N/m2
