RCC Structures Design Set 2

An intermediate T-beam reinforced with two layers of tensile steel with clear cover 13 cm encased with the floor of a hall 12 meters by 7 meters, is spaced at 3 meters from adjoining beams and if the width of the beam is 20 cm, the breadth of the flange is

A part of the slab may be considered as the flange of the T-beam if

If the maximum dip of a parabolic tendon carrying tension P is h and the effective length of the pre-stressed beam is L, the upward uniform pressure will be

Pick up the incorrect statement from the following: Tensile reinforcement bars of a rectangular beam

According to the steel beam theory of doubly reinforced beams

The width of the flange of a T-beam, which may be considered to act effectively with the rib depends upon

An R.C.C. lintel is spanning an opening of 2 m span in a brick wall. The height of the roof is 2.9 m above the floor level and that of the opening is 2.1 m above the floor level. The lintel is to be designed for self weight plus

The maximum area of tension reinforcement in beams shall not exceed

An R.C.C. beam of 25 cm width and 50 cm effective depth has a clear span of 6 meters and carries a U.D.L. of 3000 kg/m inclusive of its self weight. If the lever arm constant for the section is 0.865, the maximum intensity of shear stress, is

Lapped splices in tensile reinforcement are generally not used for bars of size larger than
