Question

A simply-supported T-beam is subjected to two pairs of distributed loads: pair 1 (??1, ??1) and pair 2 (??2, ??2). The geometric, material and loading properties are all given.

bf = 1326mm
bw = 425mm
t = 268mm
Lbeam = 13.4m
WD1 = 54 kN/m
WD2 = 152 kN/m
WL1 = 53.4 kN/m
WL2 = 181.7 kN/m
fc' = 22.8 MPa
fy = 179.9 MPa
d = 879mm
d' = 98mm

1. Solve for the height of the compression stress block using pair 1. 
2. Solve for the theoretical steel area using pair 1. 
3. Using ?? = 0.004, solve for the theoretical steel area using pair 2. 
4. Using ?? = 0.005, solve for the theoretical steel area using pair 2.
