ADVANCED REINFORCED CONCRETE DESIGN

UNIT-1: Limit state of Flexure

Short Questions:
1) Explain the term Redistribution of moments
2) Explain conditions for redistribution of moments in continuous beams.
3) Explain the structural behaviour of corbels.
4) Explain the shear reinforcement in corbel.
5) Explain the major differences in behaviour of Deep beam.
Long Questions:
1) A Draw the bending moment envelope after 30% redistribution, for a
fixed ended beam of span 5m carrying 20KN/m load at collapse.
2) Draw the bending moment envelope of a fixed beam of span 6m
subjected to 25kN/m load after 25% redistribution.
3) Explain with neat sketch the various forces acting on a corbel.
4) What is the design procedure for Corbels.
5) Design a corbel to support a factored load of 400 KN at a distance of
200mm from the face of a column of cross-section 300 mm x 300mm
Adopt M25 grade concrete and Fe415 grade HYSD bars. Sketch the
details of reinforcements in the corbels.
6) Design a corbel for a factored load of 500KN, for a factory shed
column 300x300mm, with its line of action (av=200mm) from the face
of column use M25 and Fe415 steel.
