Breadth(B) = 300 mm Tens. 25 50
Mu = 401 kNm Comp. 25 30
Shear force = 202 kN Links 8 2 legs
Clear Span = 8250 mm fck 50 N/mm2
Support Condition = SS fy 500 N/mm2
Output
Eff depth(d) = 429.5
Dist to the Asc from Comp. face (d') = 71mm
K' = 0.156
K = =Mu/fckbd2
= 0.145 K<K'=0.156 Tension reinf.is sufficient
Lever arm Z = d(0.5+√(0.25-K/0.9)
= 343 0.95d= 408 Z<0.95d Hence OK
Area of Tension steel req'd (Ast) = Mu/0.87 fy Z

Reinforcement = Min Max Reqd No Dia Provd.
Tension face = 168 5154 2689 6 25 2945
Comp face = 589 5154 589 2 25 982
Check for Shear
Preferred dia of links = 8mm
No of Legs required = 2
Max shear stress Vmax = 0.8√fck (or) 5 N/mm2 whichever is less
5.0
Actual Shear stress v = v/bd
= 1.57 N/mm2
= v<vmax, Beam size is sufficient
Shear stress capacity vc = 0.974 , 0.5vc= 0.487 vc+0.4= 1.37
= vc+0.4<v, Hence shear links to be designed
Spacing of links Sv = 225 C/C
Check for Deflection
Span / depth ratio based Table 3.9 = 20
Tension M.F. as per Table 3.10 = 0.55+(477-fs)/120(0.9+M/bd2)≤2.0 M/bd2->
