BEAM
Definition of Beam
• Horizontal or inclined structural member spanning a distance
between one or more supports, and carrying vertical loads across
(transverse to) its longitudinal axis.
• Generally horizontal member of a structure, Carries transverse loads.
Some Pictures of Beams
Types of Beams
Based on the placement of reinforcement:
1.Singly reinforced Beam
2.Doubly reinforced Beam
Types of Beams
Based on Shape:
Rectangular Beam
T – Beam
L – Beam
I - Beam
Types of Beams
•Based on Support
I. Balanced Beam
• Minimum width 10″ (250 mm) and b/h ≥ 0.3 and more
than the width of the supporting member(BNBC-8.3.4)
To resist flexural stress Mainly used for resist shear and diagonal
tension.
To resist shear stress
Hold longitudinal bar in proper position.
To resist torsional stress
Reduce shear cracking propagation
Reinforcement in Beam
Minimum reinforcement:
>=(200/ 𝑓𝑦) {psi}
Maximum reinforcement:
⍴𝑚𝑎𝑥 = 0.75 ⍴𝑏 but not more than 0.025 (BNBC: 8.3.4.2)
where ⍴𝑏 = balanced steel ratio
If main bar is <30mm, then 10mmф bar use as Stirrups, If main bar ≥32mm, then
12mmф bar use as Stirrup.(BNBC 8.1.11.1)
Reinforcement in Beam
•19, No. 22, and No. 25 bar, 90-degree bend plus 12db
extension at free end of bar
In tension
Use the following expression to calculate development length in tension, but no less than 30
cm.
in compression
development length can be calculated using the greatest of the following formula, but it shall not be
smaller than 20 cm.
ldc=(0.02fy / )db Equation 3
ldc=(0.0003fy)db Equation 4
Clear spacing & Covering
Minimum Clear Spacing between longitudinal bars in Column:
Larger of 1.5 bar diameter or 1.3 times of coarse aggregate or 1 inch
