Introduction
• Carries Transverse External Loads That
Cause Bending Moment, Shear Forces And In
Some Cases Torsion
• Concrete is strong in compression and very
weak in tension.
• Steel reinforcement is used to take up tensile
stresses in reinforced concrete beams.
• Mild steel bars or Deformed or High yield
strength deformed bars (HYSD)
• HYSD bars have ribs on the surface and this
increases the bond strength at least by 40%

•Anchorage in steel bars is normally
provided in the form of bends and hooks
•The anchorage value of bend of bar is
taken as 4 times the diameter of bar for
every 450 bend subjected to maximum of
16 times the diameter of bar.

• The beams are classified as:
• According to shape: Rectangular, T,
L, Circular etc
• According to supporting conditions:
Simply supported, fixed, continuous
and cantilever beams
• According to reinforcement: Singly
reinforced and doubly reinforced
Introduction

• Minimum cover in beams must be 25
mm or shall not be less than the
larger diameter of bar for all steel
reinforcement including links.
• Nominal cover specified in Table 16
and 16A of IS456-2000 should be
used to satisfy the durability criteria.
Introduction

11. 11
Generally a beam consists of following steel
reinforcements:
•Longitudinal reinforcement at tension and
compression face.
•Shear reinforcements in the form of vertical
stirrups and or bent up longitudinal bars are
provided.
•Side face reinforcement in the web of the beam
is provided when the depth of the web in a beam
exceeds 750 mm. (0.1% of the web area and shall
be distributed equally on two faces at a spacing
not exceeding 300 mm or web thickness
whichever is less)

Bar Bending Schedule:
Bottom straight bar (12 dia)= Total length of beam +2 x16 φ-2 x 3 φ
-2 x end cover
= (3500+2 x 200)+26 x 12-2 x 25 =4162≈4200 mm
Length of bent up bar (12 dia)= Length of straight bar +2 x (0.42 x
depth of bend) =4162+2 x 0.42 x 250 =4372≈4400 mm
Length of hanger bar (10 dia)= Length of straight bar =4162≈4200 mm
Stirrups:
Number of stirrups = Length of bar (end to end)/c/c distance of
stirrup= [(3500+2x200)-2x25]/200 = 17
Length of stirrup = 2 ( A+B)+24 φ of stirrup = 2x(250+170)+24 x 6

Bar Bending Schedule:
Bottom straight bar (18 dia)= Total length of beam -2 x end cover
