INTRODUCTION

Concrete is most typically used building material

It is advantage of being fashioned into any desired form most economically.

Concrete may be a homogenous mixture of cement, sand, coarse mixture and water.

It is terribly robust in carrying compressive strength and is extraordinarily weak in resisting tensile stress.

The strength of concrete is depending upon the amount of its ingredients, their relative quantities and also the manner during which they're mixed, transported, placed, compacted and cured.

It is potential to made cement concrete numerous} specification for various functions by adjusting proportion of ingredients befittingly.

Randomly distributed fibers or steel is bolstered in concrete to resist enduringness is named as bolstered cement concrete (RCC).

Concrete while not reinforcement is named as plain cement concrete (PCC).

Concrete is most typically used for construction of varied structural elements like block, beams, column, walls, footings, water tanks, holding walls, staircase, electrical poles piles, dams, piers, pavements, swimming bath bunkers, silos, chimney etc.

HISTORIC DEVELOPMENT

Prior to the middle nineteen century concrete was created with lime and predominately used as a filling inside brick and masonry walls

Portland cement was 1st accustomed create concrete in die decade and bit by bit replaced lime as a binding agent throughout later a part of the nineteen centuries,

In 1824. Joseph was first off used mass concrete for the development of foundation, and bridges owing to its setting capability and compressive strength

Reinforced concrete and formed parts developed within the late century, broadening the utilization of concrete as a building material. Initiated by the development of strengthened flower pots with wire. Massive numbers of mythical creature structure were made Britain between 1900 to 1919 such as building bridge, viaducts, reservoirs

Modern concrete has undergone abundant analysis and development since its introduction in 1800. Examination the concrete of these days that uses finely ground high strength cements and top quality wall hierarchic sand and aggregates. The first concretes were created with natural hydraulic lime and early Portland cement and have considerably less compressive strength and larger permeability

Lack of information for understanding properties of ingredients, method of concreting and desires of action has had a bearing on its sturdiness

It is advised to not compare concrete structure shrunken Cartier with fashionable concrete even supposing Portland was used as a result of fashionable concrete materials undergone important development notably throughout twenty century.

Research is continuous method, Fiber concrete was introduced in 1970, used of super softener as

To optimize the eco-efficiency and life cycle economy of concrete project, exercise of materials and use of industrial by product is one among the way: Concrete Building offer safety structure against climatic condition

Concrete is employed in massive volume in wind farms as a base for rotary engine because it will dampens the massive eccentric hundreds and stresses caused by high rate rotation of wind turbine blades. Formed concrete is usually used for turbine.

The main constituents of the exits gases from a cement kiln are carbon dioxide, nitrous inhalation anesthetic and Na dioxide. The outdated gases conjointly contain little quantities of chlorides, dust, fluorides etc, this cement mud are often removed by filters and mud is come to method. Energy consumption that created gases has declined considerably over a final fifty years. By improvement in method technologies and in plants.

100 million tons of scoria created worldwide each year. Out of that solely 100% is employed for cement production. Still ninetieth of coal ash and scoria are disposed by bonding and reposition it's continuous analysis goes on to extend this share of scoria utilized in cement concrete business to create a eco-friendly product.

In order to attain desired objectives of improved quality, productivity and potency in cement and concrete construction, it's necessary to enhance quality, content nature of education and coaching among property regime,

Proper coaching of personnel to supply smart quality of concrete by correct batching intermixture, inserting and solidification.

Advances and Future Tends In R.C.C.

Over recent year a speedy development within the field of concrete technology has taken place.

Increasing construction challenges together with new innovations in materials and production techniques have provided a brand-new basis for manufacturing high performance concrete structures and concrete product,

it is currently attainable to created concrete with natural mineral mixture upto compressive strengths of upto 230 MPa If the natural mineral mixture is replaced by high quality ceramic mixture, compressive strengths of upto five hundred MPa can be achieved.

Even with light-weight mixture compressive strengths of over one hundred ten MPa with densities of but 1800 kg/m are often created

In combination with high molding pressure and hot solidification, special concrete materials with compressive strengths of upto800 MPa are obtained

Also over a recent years, several comparatively new concrete structures and industrial product have shown a poor performance

Concrete technology has entered into engineering profession with a utilization for on the far side the

INTRODUCTION TO VARIOUS DESIGN PHILOSOPIES OF R.C. STRUTURES

Concrete is strong in compression but week in tension

Steel is reinforced suitable at the place where concrete is weak in tension such combination of steel and concrete

The purpose of R.C structure is increase strength of concrete section and to reduce the size of structural member

Various design philosophies of R.C structure are

Working stress method (WSM)

Ultimate load method (ULM)

Limit state method (LSM)

Reinforced concrete is used to construct various structures

Buildings

Bridges

Flyovers

Water tanks

Retaining wall

Bunkers and silos

Chimney

Towers

Fig no 2 Flyover

Following are the various methods for RCC structure

1. Working stress methodology (WSM).

2. Ultimate load methodology (ULM).

3 Limit state methodology (LSM).

Limitations of WSM strategies over LSM

Since WSM supported elastic theory, the reserve strength materials on the far side yield purpose isn't taken under consideration

In operating stress methodology, serviceableness criteria isn't taken into thought, moment of resistance for same cross section is additional in LSM than WSM.

Advantages of reinforced concrete

Strength

Ductility

Durability

Mould ability

Porosity

Fireplace resistance

Economy

1. Strength

It has excellent Tensile likewise as compressive strength a pair of malleability

2. Ductility

Ductility of structures is increase thanks to steel reinforcement

3. Durability

R.C. structures are more durable

4. Mouldability

The flexibility of reinforcement and therefore the liquidness of concrete makes the R.C. member to be mould in any form thus it's appropriate for architectural demand.

5. Porosity

RC members are impermeable to wet

6. Fireplace resistance

R.C. structures are additional fireplace resistance than alternative materialssuch as steel and wood

7. Economy

R.C.C is cheaper than steel and pre stressed concrete

Disadvantages of R.C.C

RCC has followed disadvantages

1. Weight of R.C. structures are measure over different materials

2. Significant formwork is needed for R.C. members

3. RC structures take a lot of times to realize its full strength

Reinforced concrete building elements

1. Slab

2. Beam

3. Column

4. Footing

Design of every parts is depends on load on structure and structure action of member subjected to the current load.

Load transfer mechanism la RC building is load from block is transferred to the supporting beams, and from beam lo column and from column to footing ultimately footing transfer the masses to soil strata.

1. Slabs

Slab is that the 2-dimensional component that is plate component. As a result of the depth of block is thus smaller than its length in x and y direction. It is a flexural member subject to transverse load.

2. Beams

Beam is he one dimensional component that is subjected to transverse beam carries load from slabs, from masonry walls and then self-weights Beams is also supported on another beam old is also on supported on column Failure of beam are native failure, which may lead to failure of that floor

3. Columns

Columns square measure typically the vertical member subjected to axial or eccentric hundreds. The load carries by column is comes from beans and from higher columns if any. The column is incredibly necessary support because failure of column lends to collapse of whole structure.

4. Footing

Footing is the strong base to the structures. It helps to transmit the loads from structure uniformly to the large are beneath

Working Stress Method (WSM)

WSM one of the oldest method of design of structures WSM

It is based on the elastic theory.

In WSM, a structural clement is so designed that the permissible stresses are not exceeded anywhere in the structures when it is subjected to worst combination of working loads

In WSM, the reserve strength to materials beyond yield point is not taken into account.

The permissible stress in concrete is obtained by the ratio of ultimate strength of concrete to factor of safety

The permissible stress in steel is obtained by the ratio of yield strength or 02 proof stress of steel to factor of safety

As per 15456, factor of safety of 3 for concrete and 1.78 for yield strength of steel.

Ultimate Load Method

In this method, ultimate load is used as a design load

Working loads are increased by while factor 1.5 times ultimate loads. These factors we called as load factors

This load factors give the exact margin of safety in term of load

Nonlinear stress strain behavior of concrete is taken into account

Load factor= Collapse load / working load

This theory is based on the belief that final strain in concrete in and therefore the compressive stress at the sting of the section correspond to the present strain.

The ULM is most economical than WSM the section designed by final load strategies square measure and needed less reinforcement.

The most drawback of this method is as follow

Very skinny section obtained by this technique ends up in excessive deformations and cracking, that the structures become unserviceable.

No issue of safety is employed for material stresses.

As the serviceability demand isn't glad by this technique, it absolutely was not adopted by structural designers.

Ultimate load technique is replaced by Limit state technique that takes care of state of collapse and serviceableness.

Limit State methods

Limit state technique is associate degree improved style philosophy to beat the drawbacks of WSM and ULM

It is supported semi-empirical approach. Limit states square measure the assorted necessities that structure is predicted to complete so the performance of the structure satisfies the supposed purpose that it's engineered.

it's the great technique which is able to beware of each strength and serviceableness necessities

IS 456 2000 is employed to style the plain and strengthened concrete by this technique. It thought-about limit state for collapse and serviceableness

Limit state of collapse square measure axial (tension and compression) flexure, shear and torsion

Limit state of serviceableness square measure deflection, durability, fireplace resistance

Permissible Stresses for Materials within the WSM

Permissible stresses for different type of grades of concrete

Assumptions created in working stress method

Sections that a plane before bending stay plane even when bending

The stress-strain relationship for concrete and steel under working load is liner

The standard modular ratio m has the worth of 280/3rho

All tensile stresses area unit preoccupied by steel reinforcement only and also the concrete areas in tension one is chosen

There should be an ideal bond between steel and tensile and compressive forces

The modulus of elasticity steel and concrete are constant

MODULAR RATIO

The ratio between modulus of elasticity of steel to concrete is called as modular ratio.

It is denoted by m

M = Es/Ec

The modular ratio varies with the grade of concrete

Modular ratio as per IS 456:2000 for R.C design is

M= 280/3

Long term creep is partially taken into consideration in the equation

Grade of concrete	Modular ratio
M15	M=280/3*5=28.66
M20	M=280/3*7=13.33
M25	M=280/3*8.5=10.98
M30	M=280/3*10=9.33

BEAMS

Beams are the flexible members are classified into 2 types

Based on geometry

Rectangular beam

Singly reinforcement beam

Doubly reinforcement beam

2. Flanged beam

T beam

L beam

3. Based on mode of failure

balanced beam

under reinforcement beam

over reinforcement beams

TYPE OF REACTANGULAR BEAM

Singly reinforcement beams

The beams section in which reinforcements provided to resist only tension is called as singly reinforcement section.

In such beams steel provided only one side of the section

Doubly reinforcement beams

The beam section in which reinforcements in which reinforcements is provided to resist tension and compression is called as doubly reinforcements section.

In such beam steel is provided on both side of the neutral axis

Fig no 5 Singly and doubly reinforced beams

Balanced, under –reinforcement and over reinforcement section for WSM

. Balanced sections,under reinforced section and over reinforced section

Fig no 6 Types of reinforced section

Balanced section

When the maximum stresses induced in concrete and steel reaches their permissible values simultaneously such section is called as balanced section

The neutral axis of this section is called as critical neutral axis .it is denoted by X c

Critical neutral axis is calculated from stress diagram

c b c/ s t/m = X c / d – X c

Balanced section is most economical section for design

Under reinforcement section

Neutral axis is calculated by taking moment of area of compression and tension zone about neutral axis

(b x) x/2 = m A s t (d – x)

When the actual axis is less than neutral axis such section is called as under reinforced section

X < X c

Over reinforced section

When the quantity of steel provided is greater than steel provided than the steel provided in the balanced section the section is over reinforcement section

In this section stress in the concrete reached its maximum permissible stress in steel hence section fails in compression

Actual neutral axis is greater than critical neutral axis the section is over reinforced section

X > X c

Over reinforced section is not permitted in design as it fails under compression, Concrete is brittle and does not alarm to before failure

Comparison between various sections

S R NO	Description	Balanced Section	Under reinforcement section	Over reinforcement section
1	Steel	Steel provided as per requirements	Steel provide less than requirements	Steel provided more than requirements
2	Neutral axis	X =XC	X<XC	X>XC
3	Actual stress of concrete	(c b c) s= 𝜎c b c	(c b c) s< 𝜎c b c	(c b c) s= 𝜎c b c
4	Actual stress in steel	(s t )s= 𝜎s t	(s t)s= 𝜎s t	(s t)s< 𝜎s t
5	Moment of resistance	MR =TZ =CZ	MR = T*Z	MR =C*Z
6	Economic	economical	More economical	costlier
7	safety	More safe	Fails in tension	Fails in compression

Need of under reinforced section in LSM design

When quantity of steel provided is less than steel required in balanced section such section is called as under reinforced section

In this section stress in the steel reaches its maximum permissible stress in concrete hence the section fails in tension

Steel has an elastic material which allows to deflect in a tension zone this lead to cracks at bottom surface which is an alarm to occupied to take care of structure components

In case of failure in compression zone in concrete is sudden without any alarm to the occupant hence it is always preferable to use under reinforcement section in LSM

BASICTERMONOLOGY

EFFECTIVE DEPTH

Effective depth of section is the distance between the center of the area of tension reinforcement and maximum compression fiber

d = overall depth –effective cover

d =D -/2 – clear cover

Definition of Effective Depth | Chegg.com

Fig no 7 Effective depth

CLEAR COVER

The minimum distance between the surface of concrete to the outside of the reinforcements is called clear cover.

D=d+ /2 +cover

It is provided to protect reinforcements from whether and fire so that if does not corrode or melts

To produce the grip of concrete to steel

To develop the sufficient bond strength along the surface area of the steel bar

Neutral Axis in the Section

The axis at which the flexural stresses are zero in the section is called as Neutral Axis (N.A.)

Neutral axis divides the section in Tension and compression zone.

In simply supported section, compression zone above N.A. and tension zone below N.A

In cantilever section, Tension zone is above NA and compression zone below N.A.

Position of neutral axis helps the structural engineer to know the exact amount of strain developed in concrete and steels

Concrete is weak in tension so steel is provided on reinforcements member to resists tension in the section hence steel is provided below N.A in simply supported member and above N.A in cantilever member

Moment of resistance is the balancing couple developed in the system

Tension development in section is resisted by steel and compression is resisted by concrete

Since the concrete is week in tension the tension resisted by concrete is neglected

Neutral axis will be center of gravity of composite section which consist of concrete area in compression and area of steel in tension

(Moment of area in compression about neutral axis )= (moment of area in tension about neutral axis).

Moment of resistance

The moment of couple formed by total tensile forces in steel acting and the total compressive force in the concrete acting at the counter balance the bending due to external loading is known as moment of resistance

Design steps

Given data:

Size of beam, area of steel and grade of material

Step 1: Depth of critical neutral axis (x c).

X c / d- X c = c b c/( s t/m )

Step 2: Actual depth of neutral axis (x),

b x2/2 = m A s t (d – x)

Step 3: Type of beam section,

1) X= X c, balanced section.

2) X < X c, under reinforced section.

3) X > X c, over reinforced section.

Step 4: Moment of resistance,

1) For under reinforced section

MR = T • Z

= σs t •A s t (d – x/3)

2) For over reinforced section

MR = C • Z

= (σc b c /2) •b x (d – x/3)

3) For balanced section

MR = T • Z = C • Z

Problem: -

1) A reinforced concrete beam section of size 300 mm x 700 mm effective depth is reinforced with 3 bars of 20 mm diameter in tension. The concrete mix and HYSD steel reinforcement used are of grade M20 and Fe415 respectively.

Find.

1) Depth of neutral axis.

2) Type of reinforced section.

3) Moment of resistance.

4) Maximum stress induced in material WSM is recommended.

Ans:

Given,

b = 300 mm

d = 700 mm

To find: x, MR and σc b c

Sol2

For M20, σc b c = 7 N/mm2and m = 280 / 3 * c b c = 230/ 3* 7 = 13.33

For Fe415, σs t = 230 N/mm2

Area of steel = n * /2 * d 2 = 942.5 mm 2

Step 1: Depth of critical neutral axis:

c b c / (s t /m) = X c / (d –X c)

0.406 = X c / (700 – X c)

700 = x c + 2.464 X c

X C = 202

Step 2:Actual depth of neutral axis (x) :

= m. A s t( d – x)

= 13.33x942.5 (700– x)

150 x2 = 8.794 x 106 – 12563.53x

150 x2 + 12563.53x - 8.794 x 106 = 0

Solving quadratic equation, we get

x = 203.85 mm

Step 3: Type of beam section:

Since, x > X c, then section is over reinforced section and will be fails

in compression.

Step 4: Moment of resistance:

MR = C* Z

MR = c b c/ 2 .b .x. (d – x/3)

= 300 X 203.85 (700–203.85 /3)

= 135.29 x 106 N.mm = 135.29 KN.m

Step 5: maximum stress induced in material:

Since the section fails in compression,

c b c max = 7 N/ mm 2

Corresponding maximum stress in steel:

= c b c /s t/m) = x – (d-x)

= 93.33/ s t = 0.41086

s t max= 227.1 N/mm2

1.3 Assumptions in Limit State Design Method

At Limiting state, the utmost strain in concrete, that happens at outer compression fiber is 0.0035

The stress-strain curve for concrete has parabolic get on to 0.002 strain and also the constant up to limit state of 0. 0035.However, IS Code doesn't stop alternative shapes like parallelogram and trapezoidal

The lastingness of concrete is ignored

The stress in reinforcement springs from the representative stress-strain curve for the kind of steel used. For style purpose a partial ratio of 1.15 is used thus maximum stress in steel is proscribed to f y/1.15= 0.87 * f y

.The most strain in steel at failure shall not be less than

F y/1.15Es + 0.002 f y

X = depth of section

b = breadth of section

d = effective depth of section

The depth of neutral axis is obtained by considering the equilibrium of the traditional forces that is,

Resultant force of compression = average stress X area= 0.36 f c k b x

Resultant force of tension = 0.87 f y A t

Force of compression ought to be capable force of tension,

0.36 f c k b x = 0.87 f y A t

The distance between the lines of action of 2 forces C & T is termed the lever arm and is denoted by z.

Lever arm z = d – 0.42 x

z = d – 0.42

z = d – (f y A t/f c k b)

Moment of resistance with relevance concrete = compressive force x lever arm= 0.36 f c k b x z

Moment of resistance with respect to steel = tensile force x lever arm

= 0.87 f y A t z

Maximum depth of neutral axis

A compression failure is brittle failure.

The most depth of neutral axis is restricted to make sure that tensile steel can reach its yield stress before concrete fails in compression therefore a brittle failure is avoided.

The limiting value of the depth of neutral axis x m for various grades of steel from strain diagram.

X m / (d – X m ) = 0.0035/ ((0.87 f y /E s )+ 0.002 )

Limiting value of tension steel and moment of resistance

Since the upmost depth of neutral axis is limited, the maximum worth of moment of resistance is additionally limited.

Factored BM = moment of resistance with relevance concrete

= ratio X B.M

= 1.5 X 45= 67.5 kNm

For balanced section,

Moment of resistance Mu = 0.36 f c k b X m(d - 0.42 X m)

F y	X m
250	0.53 d
415	0.48 d

Grade for steel is Fe250For Fe250

For Fe 250 steel,

X m= 0.53d

Mu = 0.36 f c k b (0.53 d) (1 – 0.42 * 0.53) d

= 2.22bd

Since D/b =2 or, d/b = 2 or, b=d/2

Mu = 1.11 d

Mu = 67.5 X ten N mm

d=394 mm and b= 200mm

Adopt D = 450 mm, b = 25 mm, d = 415 mm

Area of tensile steel At = Factored BM /0.87 f y (d -0.42 X m)

= 67.5 * 103 /0.87 * 250 * (1- 0.42 * 0.53 ) 415

In beams the diameter of main strengthened bars is typically hand-picked between twelve mm and 25 mm. Provide 2-20mm and 1-22mm bars giving total area

DOUBLY REINFORCEMENT BEAM:

Design of Steel Reinforcement of Concrete Beams by WSD Method | MATHalino

Fig no 18 Doubly reinforced section

If the applied bending moment is bigger than the instant resisting capability or final moment carrying capability of the section (I. e, over strengthened section), then there are often 3 alternatives:

1) If attainable, increase the size of the section, preferred 'depth

2) Use higher grade of concrete

3) Steel reinforcement is also more in compression zone to extend the instant resisting capability of the section (depth is stay because it is). This is often called a doubly reinforced beam'.

The double reinforced section is often needed underneath the subsequent circumstances:

1) Sectional dimensions area unit restricted thanks to needs ofhead room, look etc. and therefore the strength of given on an individual basis strengthened section is insufficient.

2) The beam that acts as a flanged beam at middle span becomes a rectangular beam at supports of a nonstop beam. At support tension happens at prime creating the projection ineffective and there for the section becomes inadequate to resist giant peak price of support moment,

4) Basement with lower support level and combined with ventilator couples and to style a double strengthened beam.

5) Compression steel is provided typically to scale back the deflection i.e. lo increase the stiffness and additionally to extend the rotation capability.

6) Compression steel is often utilized in structures in earthquake regions to extend their ductility

7) Compression reinforcement also will and considerably in reducing the future deflection of beams.

The failure theory evolved for on an individual basis strengthened section holds smart for doubly strengthened beam also. The most assumption

1) Plane sections stay plain even when bending

2) R.C. sections in bending fail once the compressive strain within the concrete reaches the worth of zero.0035

3) The strain at any purpose in steel and concrete is taken as adequate the strain resembling the strain at that time of the strain v/s strain graph for the fabric (steel or concrete)

4) X u limited / d' magnitude relation needn't be strictly adhered to in double strengthened beams

5) Even supposing shrinkage, creep and alternative properties of concrete wil have an effect on the particular stat of stress of steel and concrete, these aren't taken into thought in estimating the collapse or final strength

A doubly reinforced section may be looks upon as made up of 2 sections 1 and 2 gives below

Section 1

A singly reinforced section with concrete resisting compressive force c balanced by tensile force t provided by tension steel. this section is assumed so resist part moment

Section2

An imaginary section consisting of compression steel providing additional compression forces which is balanced by tensile force given by tension steel. This section is assumed to resist balancing moment M

DESIGN STEPS

Calculation of ultimate moment of resistance

Given

Grade of concrete

Grade of steel

Size of beam

Reinforcement provided

If X u = X u max …………….balanced

If X u< X u max …………….under reinforced

If X u> X u max …………….over reinforced

Equating the compression force and tension force

0.36 * f c k * b * X u * + A s c * f s c = 0.87 * f y * A s t

From this find X u

Moment of resistance

M u = 0.36 * f c k * b * X u * (d- 0.42 * X u) + A s c * f s c * (d- d’)

This equation is valid for balanced and under reinforced section

If the section is over reinforced section then take X u = X u max in above equation and use the same equation for finding M u. Do not increase the depth of the beam for over reinforced section.

Design the beam find out reinforcement

Given

Grade of concrete and steel

Size of beam

Ultimate moment

M u is given

For balanced section X u = X u max

M u limiting = 0.36 * f c k * b * X u max * (d- 0.42 * X u max)

So M u 2 = M u – M u limiting

A s t limit = M u limit / 0.87 * f y * (d – 0.42 * X u max)

A sc = M u2/ f s c (d- d’)

As t 2 = A s c * f s c/ 0.87 f y

As t =A s t limit + A s t 2

Where

d = effective depth of beam

d’= distance between extreme compression fiber to the center of comp reinforced

b = width of beam

X u = depth of actual neutral axis

X u max = depth of critical neutral axis

A s t = total area of tensile reinforced in mm2

F c k = characteristic compressive strength of concrete

F y = characteristic strength of steel

M u limit = limiting M R of a section without compression reinforced in K N m Top of Form

M u = ultimate M R

A s c= area of compression reinforcement

T BEAM

T beams and terms used in T beams in Reinforced cement concrete

FIG NO 19 T BEAM

A beam is considered as such even if it has a large base to accommodate tension steel

The shape and size of concrete on the tension side assumed to be cracked has no effect on the theoretical moments

R C floors normally consist of slabs and beams that are cast monolithically the two acting together to resist load and because of this interaction the effective section of beam is a T or L beam

The effective flanged width resulting from slab interaction depend on slab type

Effective flanged beam

Exterior beam

Beam tributary beam

Web width plus six times slab thickness

Web width plus one twelfth of beam span

Interior beam

Beam tributary beam

Web width plus 16 times slab thickness

One quarter of beam span

Location of neutral axis and rectangular stress block depth

NA for t beam can fails either in flanged or in the web

At ultimate state it is the depth of the rectangular stress block that counts

If the stress block falls in the flanged as is very frequent for positive moments the rectangular beam formula apply

In this case tensile concrete is assumed to be cracked and its shapes has no effect

The section is analysis as a rectangular one using the flanged b = bf

Minimum steel for T beam

Minimum steel quantity is imposed by codes for the same reasons as in rectangular beams

A s min =Max [( / 4 f y), (1.4 / f y)] * b w * d

Analysis of T beams

With a larger compression area from the flanged a t beam is usually under reinforced and tension steel should yield before failure

We therefore first present the method of analysis in case of steel yielding

Case of steel not yielding is presented later

Analysis steps for T beams

Check minimum steel area

Assume stress block in flange and determine it depth

As f y/0.85 f y b f

Compare block depthwith fanged thickness

If a <= h f stress block in flanged

If a >= h f stress block in web

Calculate neutral axis depth =a /

and steel strain

If steel not yielding go to no yielding case

Calculate M n ,

L BEAM

T-Beams...PRC_I

Fig no 20 L BEAM

In bending the beam take the tension force and slab take compression force since the L beam receive their load from one side only they are subjected to consideration amount of torsion moments so L beam are subjected to bending moments shear force and torsion moments

Moment carried by flange of L beams

The moment M1 causes torsion in the beam and is known as the torsion moments which is restricted by the rectangular portion only and the flanged does not contribute to torsion moment of resistance

Moment carried by flanged of L beam and the slab

The central load W cause bending moments in the beam which is joined restricted by the rectangular portion of the beam as well as the flanged

Changes in floor level may be accommodated by either an L beam or building up one side of an inverted T beam

Code recommends that effective width of the flanged of beam may be taken as follows

For L beam, lesser of

b f =I o /12 + b w + 3 D f

b f = X 1 + b w

2. for isolated L beams, lesser of

b f = 0.5 I o/( Io +b )4 + b w

b f = b

Where

b f = effective width of flanged

b w =breadth of rib

b = actual width of flanged

I o = distance between points of zero moments in beam

The design principles to be followed while designing L beam

Given

type of mix

Step 1: determine width of flanged

Steps 2: fixed up a suitable depth

Steps 3: calculate MR of the section assuming the failure of concrete to occur .if the moment of resistance is greater than bending moments assumed depth is ok otherwise either increases the depth of the section or provide additional reinforcement in compression side in addition to the tension side

Steps 4: calculate the amount of tension steel for actual bending moments treating it as a balanced section

Steps 5: check for the shear and provide shear reinforced

Steps 6: check of deflection

Steps 7: check for end anchoring and development length
