Question

3. The simply supported beam to the right has a(unfactored) dead load of 1.4 kip/ft plus its own dead load and a (unfactored) live load of 2.4 kip/ft.The concrete strength

is 6000 psi and the steel is Grade 50. Use load and strength reduction factors from ACI 318-14 Chapters 5 and 21 determine: a) Compute the factored moment Mu b) What is B1? c) What is pTC? d) Determine b, d and As assuming (h d+2.5 inches). Specify how many bars and what diameter is needed to resist Mu, recalculate M to account for the self-weight of the beam and make sure your design can resist it. Make sure your steel is yielding and your bars have enough room to fit, finally check that your steel is yielding by ensuring your design A, is bigger than Asmin (assume the minimum cover for all bars is 1.5 inches).
