A beam cast monolithically has the following properties: bf=1200mm, t or hf = 110mm, bw=380mm and h=800mm. It is reinforced with 10D32mm grade 420MPa bars. Concrete strength is assumed to be 27.5MPa and the centroid of tension reinforcement is located 665mm from the outermost compression fiber. A. Determine maximum nominal moment to ensure tension controlled, kN-m. B. Calculate the balanced steel area, mm2. C. Calculate the balanced moment in kN-m.
