Compression Steel
Tests of doubly reinforced concrete beams have shown that even if the
compression concrete crushes, the beam may very well not collapse if
the compression steel is enclosed by stirrups. Once the compression
concrete reaches its crushing strain, the concrete cover spalls or splits
off the bars, much as in columns. If the compression bars are
confined by closely spaced stirrups, the bars will not buckle until
additional moment is applied. This additional moment cannot be
considered in practice because beams are not practically useful after
part of their concrete breaks off.
(Would you like to use a building after some parts of the concrete
beams have fallen on the floor?)

Up to this point it has been assumed that the compression steel has
reached its yield stress. If such is the case, the values of 𝐴𝑠2 and 𝐴′𝑠 will
be equal because the addition to T of 𝐴𝑠2 fy must be equal to the
addition to C of 𝐴′𝑠 𝑓𝑦 for equilibrium. If the compression steel has not
yielded, 𝐴′𝑠 must be larger than 𝐴𝑠2 .

If the strain in the compression steel ′ 𝑠 > 𝑦 = 𝑓𝑦 / 𝐸𝑠 , the assumption is
valid and 𝑓′𝑠 is at yield, 𝑓𝑦 . If ′ 𝑠 < 𝑦 , the compression steel is not yielding,
and the value of c calculated above is not correct. A new equilibrium
equation must be written that assumes 𝑓′𝑠 < 𝑓𝑦 .
