Please someone help?

em 1: Transformed Moment of Inertia and Elastic Deflection Given: The center of the top and bottom rebars are placed 2.5 " from the top and bottom faces. Top Reinforcement: 2 no. 4 Rebar Bottom Reinforcement: 4 no. 9 Rebar Use textbook table A-1 for rebar properties Unit weight of plain concrete a. Find the transformed moment of inertia of the composite section. b. Calculate the reinforcement ratio where is is the area of the bottom steel, is the depth from the top face of the beam to the bottom steel, and is width of the beam. c. A 30' simply supported beam has this cross-section. Ignoring the effects of cracking, how much would the beam deflect under its own self-weight and a live load of ? d. Often the unit weight for reinforced concrete is assumed to be . Repeat part c. using this assumption. e. Repeat part c. using the gross moment of inertia. Note: the gross moment of inertia is the moment of inertia assuming the beam is entirely concrete. f. Briefly discuss the difference between the deflections calculated in parts c-e. When could the simplifying assumptions made in parts and e be useful? Are they safe assumptions to make?
