(Solved):
A L-beam reinforced concrete section, see Figure A1 has a total depth D=800mm, effective flan ...
A L-beam reinforced concrete section, see Figure A1 has a total depth D=800mm, effective flange width bef?=800mm, flange depth tf?=200mm and web width bw?=400mm and is reinforced with 8 N 32 steel bars at the bottom. The concrete characteristic compressive strength is fc??=32MPa and the yield strength of steel reinforcement is fsy?=500MPa. Given that Es?=200,000MPa. Determine the ultimate sagging moment capacity of this section using the limiting concrete strain criterion of 0.003 .
To determine the ultimate sagging moment capacity of the L-beam reinforced concrete section, we can follow these steps:Step 1: Calculate the effective depth (d)The effective depth (d) of the beam is given by: where D is the total depth and tf is the...
