# Beam Design with Reinforcement Bars

## Overview
A singly reinforced beam will be provided with reinforcing bars corresponding to 90% of the maximum reinforcement ratio as specified in the ACI Code for a tension-controlled (underreinforced) design.

### Material Properties
- **Concrete compressive strength** \( f'_{c} \): 4000 psi
- **Yield strength of steel** \( f_{y} \): 80000 psi
- **Strain at yield** \( \varepsilon_{y} \): 0.002

## Task Breakdown

### a. Estimating the Steel Area (\( A_{s} \))
Calculate the estimated steel area \( A_{s} \) without selecting specific rebars.

### b. Stress and Strain Distribution
Create diagrams to show stress and strain distributions in the beam cross-section. Include:
- Location of the neutral axis
- Compressive and tensile forces acting on the cross-section

### c. Moment Calculation
Determine:
- Nominal moment strength \( M_{n} \)
- Design moment strength \( \phi M_{n} \) (in kips-ft)

Provide an explanation of how the formula for moment calculation can be derived.

### d. Additional Compression Rebars
Assume the design moment strength is less than the factored moment:
- Add compression rebars
- Effective depth \( d' = 1.5'' \)
- Compute steel area of compression rebars \( A'_{s} \) so compression bars yield during flexural failure

### e. Reevaluating Moment Strength
Using \( A'_{s} \) from part d, calculate revised:
- Nominal moment strength \( M_{n} \)
- Design moment strength \( \phi M_{n} \) (in kips-ft)

Include a brief explanation of the formula used in moment calculation.

### Diagram Description
- The beam is illustrated with a height \( h = 20'' \) and width \( b = 12'' \).
- Effective depth \( d = 17.5'' \) is shown.

This breakdown guides the design and analysis of a reinforced concrete beam, focusing on stress and strength considerations.
