Question
A triangular beam having a base
width of 433 mm has a total depth of
776 mm. It is reinforced with 5-
16mm bars placed at 70mm (steel
cover) above the bottom of the
beam. f'c=24.06 MPa, fy=275 MPa.
Use fc (allow) = 0.45f'c and fs(allow)
%3D
= 0.5fy
%3D
Calculate the capacity of the beam in
kN-m using WSD.
