1. SINGLY REINFORCED BEAM
By limit state method of design

2. DIFFERENT METHODS OF DESIGN
OF CONCRETE
1. Working Stress Method
2. Limit State Method
3. Ultimate Load Method
4. Probabilistic Method of Design

3. LIMIT STATE METHOD OF DESIGN
 The object of the design based on the limit state
concept is to achieve an acceptable probability, that
a structure will not become unsuitable in it’s lifetime
for the use for which it is intended,
i.e. It will not reach a limit state
 A structure with appropriate degree of reliability
should be able to withstand safely.
 All loads, that are reliable to act on it throughout it’s
life and it should also satisfy the subs ability
requirements, such as limitations on deflection and
cracking.

4.  It should also be able to maintain the required
structural integrity, during and after accident, such
as fires, explosion & local failure.
i.e. limit sate must be consider in design to ensure
an adequate degree of safety and serviceability
 The most important of these limit states, which
must be examine in design are as follows
Limit state of collapse
- Flexure
- Compression
- Shear
- Torsion
This state corresponds to the maximum load
carrying capacity.

6. SINGLY REINFORCED BEAM
 In singly reinforced simply supported beams
or slabs reinforcing steel bars are placed
near the bottom of the beam or slabs where
they are most effective in resisting the
tensile stresses.

12.  x = Depth of Neutral axis
 b = breadth of section
 d = effective depth of section
 The depth of neutral axis can be obtained by
considering the equilibrium of the normal forces ,
that is,
 Resultant force of compression = average stress X area
= 0.36 fck bx
 Resultant force of tension = 0.87 fy At
 Force of compression should be equal to force of tension,
0.36 fck bx = 0.87 fy At
x =
Where At = area of tension steel

14.  Moment of resistance with respect to concrete = compressive force x lever arm
= 0.36 fck b x z
 Moment of resistance with respect to steel = tensile force x lever arm
= 0.87 fy At z

15. MAXIMUM DEPTH OF NEUTRAL
AXIS
 A compression failure is brittle failure.
 The maximum depth of neutral axis is limited to ensure that tensile
steel will reach its yield stress before concrete fails in compression,
thus a brittle failure is avoided.
 The limiting values of the depth of neutral axis xm for different grades
of steel from strain diagram.

 Since the maximum depth of neutral axis is limited,
the maximum value of moment of resistance is also
limited.
 Mlim with respect to concrete = 0.36 fck b x z

19. TYPES OF PROBLEM
a) Analysis of a section
b) Design of a section

20. a) For under reinforced section, the value of x/d is less than xm/d value.
The moment of resistance is calculated by following equation:
Mu = 0.87 fy At d –
a) For balanced section, the moment of resistance is calculated by the
following equation:
Mu = 0.87 fy At ( d – 0.42xm)
a) For over reinforced section, the value of x/D is limited to xm/d and the
moment of resistance is computed based on concrete:
Mu = 0.36 fck b xm ( d – 0.42 xm )

21.  Analysis of section

22.  Determine the moment of resistance for the section shown in figure.
(i) fck = 20 N/mm , fy = 415 N/mm
Solution:
(i) fck = 20 N/mm , fy = 415 N/mm
breadth (b) = 250 mm
effective depth (d) = 310 mm
effective cover = 40 mm
Force of compression = 0.36 fck b x
= 0.36 X 20 X 250x
= 1800x N

23. Area of tension steel At = 3 X 113 mm
Force of Tension = 0.87 fy At
= 0.87 X 415 X 3 X 113
= 122400 N
 Force of Tension = Force of compression
 122400 = 1800x
 x = 68 mm
 xm = 0.48d
 = 0.48 X 310
 = 148.8 mm
 148.8 mm > 68 mm
 Therefore,
 Depth of neutral axis = 68 mm
fy xm
415 0.48d
500 0.46d

24.  Lever arm z = d – 0.42x
= 310 – 0.42 X 68
= 281 mm
As x < xm ( It is under reinforced )
o
o Since this is an under reinforced section, moment of resistance is
governed by steel.
o Moment of resistance w.r.t steel = tensile force X z
o Mu = 0.87fy At z
o = 0.87 X 415 X 3 X 113 X 281
o Mu = 34.40kNm

25. Design of a section

26.  Question : Design a rectangular beam to resist a bending moment equal to 45 kNm
using (i) M15 mix and mild steel
 Solution :
 The beam will be designed so that under the applied moment both
materials reach their maximum stresses.
 Assume ratio of overall depth to breadth of the beam equal to 2.
Breadth of the beam = b
Overall depth of beam = D
therefore , D/b = 2
For a balanced design,
Factored BM = moment of resistance with respect to concrete
= moment of resistance with respect to steel
= load factor X B.M
= 1.5 X 45
= 67.5 kNm

27.  For balanced section,

Moment of resistance Mu = 0.36 fck b xm(d - 0.42 xm)
 Grade for mild steel is Fe250
 For Fe250 steel,
xm = 0.53d
Mu = 0.36 fck b (0.53 d) (1 – 0.42 X 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 10 Nmm
d=394 mm and b= 200mm
fy xm
250 0.53d
415 0.48d

28.  Adopt D = 450 mm
 b = 250 mm
 d = 415mm
 Area of tensile steel At =
 =
 = 962 mm
 = 9.62 cm
 Minimum area of steel Ao= 0.85

29. =
= 353 mm
353 mm < 962 mm
In beams the diameter of main reinforced bars is usually selected
between 12 mm and 25 mm.
Provide 2-20mm and 1-22mm bars giving total area
= 6.28 + 3.80
= 10.08 cm > 9.62 cm
