Question
A rectangular concrete beam 300 mm wide
is subjected to a sagging moment of 20 kN-m
and a torsional moment of 30 kN-m. Design
a suitable depth for the beam and the
required.
longitudinal
reinforcement
Allowable stresses are:
Ocb = 5 N/mm; O = 140 N/mm and m = 19
The following criteria given in the code may
be used for design:
Equivalent bending moment Mel = M+MT
Where M
bending moment at the cross-
1+D/b
section and M, = T
1.7
%3D
Where T= Torsional moment,
D= overall depth of beam and
b = breadth of beam.
If M, given by the above equation exceeds
the numerical value of the moment M,
longitudinal reinforcement shall be provided
on the flexural compression face such that
the beam can also withstand an equivalent
moment Me2 =MT-M
Being taken as acting in the opposite sense
to the moment M.
