4. SINGLY REINFORCED SECTION:
• The beam that is longitudinally reinforced only in tension zone,
• Tension – reinforcement
• Compression is carried by the concrete.
• To tie the stirrups -two rebars are utilized in the compression zone
5. DOUBLY REINFORCED SECTION:
• The beam that is reinforced with steel both in tension and compression zone
• This type of beam is mainly provided when the depth of the beam is restricted. Depth is
reinforced on the tension side only it might not have sufficient resistance to oppose the
bending moment.
• The moment of resistance cannot be increased by increasing the amount of steel in tension
zone.
• It can be increased by making the beam over reinforced but not more than 25% on the
strained side.
• Thus a doubly reinforced beam is provided to increase the moment of resistance of a beam
having limited dimensions.
6. FLANGED SECTION:
Under certain conditions, T and L beam are more economical than the rectangular
beam.
T-beam (or tee beam)
• The top of the t-shaped cross section serves as a flange - compressive stresses.
• The web (vertical section) of the beam below the compression flange serves to
resist shear stress and coupled forces of bending.
• The T-beam has a big disadvantage compared to an I-beam because it has no
bottom flange with which to deal with tensile forces.
• One way to make a T-beam more efficient structurally is to use an inverted T-
beam with a floor slab or bridge deck joining the tops of the beams.
• Done properly, the slab acts as the compression flange.

9. ASSUMPTIONS
1. Plane section normal to the axis remains plane after bending.
2. The strain diagram is triangular. The maximum strain in concrete at the outermost compression fiber is taken as
0.35% in bending regardless of the strength of concrete.
3. The stress distribution in the concrete is parabolic. The maximum compressive stress is equal to 0.67fcu/ m.
4. The tensile strength of the concrete is ignored.
10. Modes of Failure of Sections in Bending or Flexure
BALANCED SECTION:
• If the ratio of steel to concrete in a beam is such that the maximum strain in the two materials
reaches simultaneously, a sudden failure will occur with less alarming deflection.
b
11. UNDER REINFORCED SECTION:
When the amount of steel is kept less than the balanced condition, the neutral axis shifts upward to
satisfy the equilibrium condition, and the structure fails due to yielding in steel with alarming
deflection.
12. OVER REINFORCED SECTION:
• When the amount of steel is kept more than the balanced condition, the neutral axis shifts
downward to satisfy the equilibrium condition, and the structure fails due to Failure in concrete.

18. Design of a simply supported concrete
beam (BS 8110)
A reinforced concrete beam which is 300 mm wide and 600 mm
deep is required to span 6.0 m between the centres of
supporting piers 300 mm wide .The beam carries dead and
imposed loads of 25 kNm−1 and 19 kNm−1 respectively.
Assuming fcu = 30 Nmm−2, fy = fyv = 500 Nmm−2 and the
exposure class is XC1, design the beam.
19. Step1: Ultimate / Factored Load Calculation
Dead
Self weight of beam = 0.6 × 0.3 × 24 = 4.32 kNm−1
Total dead load (gk) = 25 + 4.32 = 29.32 kNm−1
Imposed
Total imposed load (qk) = 19 kNm−1
Ultimate load
Total ultimate load (W) = (1.4gk + 1.6qk)
= (1.4 × 29.32 + 1.6 × 19)= 71.45 kN/m

Assume diameter of main bars (Φ) = 25 mm , Assume diameter of links (Φ′) = 8 mm From Table 3.6, cover for
exposure class XC1 = 15 + Δc = 25 mm.
d = h − c − Φ′ − Φ/2 ; = 600 − 25 − 8 − 25/2 = 554 mm
20. ULTIMATE MOMENT OF RESISTANCE, MU
Mu = 0.156 * fcu * b * d2 = 0.156 × 30 × 300 × 5542
= 430.9 × 106 Nmm = 430.9 kNm

23. Diameter and spacing of links
Where υ < (υc + 0.4) = 0.7 + 0.4 = 1.1 Nmm−2, nominal links are required according to
Hence from Table 3.13, provide H8 links at 300 mm centres where υ < 1.10 Nmm−2, i.e. 2.558 m
either side of the mid-span of beam.
24. • Where υ > (υc + 0.4) = 1.10 Nmm−2 design links required according to
• Maximum spacing of links is 0.75d = 0.75 × 554 = 416 mm. Hence from
Table provide 8 mm diameter links at 225 mm centres (Asv/sv = 0.447)
where v > 1.10 Nmm−2, i.e. 0.442 m in from both supports.
25. • Step 06 – Check for EFFECTIVE SPAN
The effective span is the lesser of
(1) centre-to-centre distance between support, i.e. 6 m, and
(2) clear distance between supports plus the effective depth, i.e. 5700 + 554 =
6254 mm. Therefore assumed span length of 6 m is correct.
