A rectangular beam of width 375 mm is reinforced with 3-32 mm bars at the bottom in a single layer. The centroid of these bars is 550 mm from extreme compression fiber. Use f’c = 27 MPa, fy = 420 MPa, NSCP 2015 provisions, and the DERIVED EQUATION Method. Calculate the Design Strength of the beam in MPa.
