Reinforced concrete beams and slabs carry loads primarily through bending. They are designed based on limiting their flexural collapse. Beams must also be checked for limiting shear and torsion stresses. Slabs generally do not require shear reinforcement under normal loads but may need torsional reinforcement where stresses occur.

Reinforced concrete beams and slabs carry loads primarily by bending

(Figs. 3.4.1 to 3). They are, therefore, designed on the basis of limit state of
collapse in flexure. The beams are also to be checked for other limit states of
shear and torsion. Slabs under normal design loadings (except in bridge decks
etc.) need not be provided with shear reinforcement. However, adequate
torsional reinforcement must be provided wherever needed.
