CE 20 – Principles of Reinforced/Prestressed Concrete
Plate No. 3
DESIGN & ANALYSIS OF SINGLY-REINFORCED CONCRETE BEAMS
I. Problem Solving
1. A reinforced concrete rectangular beam 300 mm wide has an effective depth of 500 mm and is reinforced for
tension only. Assuming f’c = 21 MPa, fy = 345 MPa,
a) Determine the maximum steel ration
b) Determine the maximum steel area required
c) Determine the ultimate moment capacity
2. A fixed ended rectangular beam must support a uniform service dead and live loads of 220 kN/m (including
beam wt.) and 182.6 kN/m respectively. It has a span of 6 m. f’c = 27.6 MPa, fy = 414.7 MPa.
a) Compute the effective depth of the beam using b = 400 mm and 𝜔 = 0.18
b) Compute for the flexural reinforcements at the support.
c) Compute for the flexural reinforcements at the midspan.
3. Design a singly reinforced concrete rectangular beam with a simple span of 6 meters which carries a dead
load of 10.5 kN/m (not including beam weight) and a live load of 16 kN/m. Assuming f’c = 30 MPa and fy
= MPa. Use concrete cover of 35 mm, main tension reinforcement of
16 mm Ø bars, steel ratio is equal to 0.5𝜌𝑚𝑎𝑥 .
