Rectangular reinforced concrete beam

Assignment Help Civil Engineering
Reference no: EM13865261

Purpose: To apply techniques learned to the design of a rectangular reinforced concrete beam for moment.

Directions:

The proposed building is a two-story commercial office building. At this stage as a professional engineer, you should design main girder (beam) at roof for just one span, according the information provided in the following:

Design Criteria:

- Roof area is 60'x80'.

- In 60' direction, there are 4 columns, which have divided the width of the roof to 3 equal spans.

- In 80' direction, there is just one span (No column in between).

- ALL CONCRETE CONSTRUCTION SHALL BE NORMAL WEIGHT STONE AGGREGATE HAVING A MINIMUM COMPRESSIVE STRENGTH, f'C = 4000 PSI AT 28 DAYS.

- ALL REINFORCING SHALL BE NEW, DEFORMED BILLET STEEL CONFORMING TO ASTM A615 GRADE 60 WITH A MINIMUM YIELD OF 60,000 PSI.

- Assume that each span is separate from others, and simply supported.

- You can ignore the width of columns, in order to find the L of span.

- Roof Loads: (The loads listed below are SERVICE loads. Be sure to use appropriate factors).

• Roof live load, "Lr"...........................................................55 psf

• Roof Dead Loads:

i. Mechanical, electrical & lighting.................................15 psf

ii. 3⁄4" acoustical hung ceiling (below roof framing).......10 psf

iii. Roof insulation, membrane...........................................15 psf

iv. Concrete weight...............................................88 psf
