Singly-Reinforced Concrete Beam: Investigation: St. Peter's College

The document provides instructions for an investigation of a singly reinforced concrete beam. It gives the dimensions and material properties of a rectangular beam that is reinforced for tension only. Students are asked to: (1) calculate the beam's ultimate moment capacity, (2) calculate the uniform ultimate load it can carry over a 6m span, and (3) describe the mode of design. The investigation is to be completed using the National Structural Code of the Philippines 2001.

Singly-Reinforced Concrete Beam: Investigation

Instructions: Read the given problem below. You may write it in a clean and plane bond paper (but it
should be in the same layout with this file – with boarder and header) or you may print this one. Take a
picture of your answer. Upload it to our Moodle Classroom.

INVESTIGATION (Use NSCP 2001)

Problem: Given a rectangular beam having a width of 280 mm and an effective depth of 500mm. the
beam is reinforced for tension only with a steel area of 4000mm2. Compressive strength of concrete
f’c = 25 MPa, steel strength fy = 400 MPa.

d =500

b = 280

a. Find the ultimate moment capacity of the beam section.


b. Find the uniform ultimate load that the beam can carry in a simple span of 6m.
c. Describe the mode of design.
