    This document discusses the design of reinforced concrete flexural members. It describes singly reinforced beam sections, including the neutral axis depth, stresses in the concrete and steel, and lever arm. It then describes a balanced section where the concrete and steel stresses reach their limits at the same time. Expressions are given for the depth of the neutral axis, moment of resistance, and the balanced percentage of steel required.

    DESIGN OF RCC STRUCTURE

    DEPARTMENT OF CIVIL ENGINEERING


    DIPLOMA SECTION
    3RD YEAR_5TH SEMESTER
    2020 – 2021
    Flexural Members – Singly Reinforced Sections:
    ■ A simply supported beam subjected to loads. Cross-sections of the beam under
    pure flexure. Figures show the cross-section of a singly-reinforced beam, strain
    profile and stress distribution across the depth of the beam, respectively due to
    the loads applied on the beam.
    ■ x = kd = depth of the neutral axis, where k is a factor.
    ■ fcbc = actual stress of concrete in bending compression at the top fibre which should
    not exceed the respective permissible stress of concrete in bending compression
    σcbc.
    ■ fst = actual stress of steel at the level of centroid of steel which should not exceed the
    respective permissible stress of steel in tension σst.
    ■ jd = d(1-k/3) = lever arm i.e., the distance between lines of action of total
    compressive and tensile forces C and T , respectively.
    ■ Figures show linear strain profile and stress distribution, respectively. However, the
    value of the stress at the level of centroid of steel is fst /m due to the transformation
    of steel into equivalent concrete of area mAst.
    Balanced Section – Singly-Reinforced:
    In a balanced cross-section both fcbc and fst
    reach their respective permissible values of σcbc
    and σst at the same time as shown in the Figure.
     The depth of neutral axis is xb = kbd.
     From the stress distribution of the Figure, we
    have σst /m = σcbc (1-kb) / kb
     An expression of kb is obtained by substituting
    the expression of m as m = 280 / 3σcbc and
    This gives kb = 93.33 / (σst + 93.33).

    ■ The value of kb for balanced section depends only on σst . It is independent of σcbc.
    ■ The lever arm, jb*d = (1- kb/3)*d
    ■ The expressions of total compressive and tensile forces, C and T are:
    C = (1/2)*σcbc*b*xb = (1/2)*σcbc*b*kb*d
    T = Ast*σst
    The total compressive force is acting at a depth of xb/3 from the top fibre of the section.
    The moment of resistance of the
    balanced cross-section, Mb is obtained
    by taking moment of the total
    compressive force C about the centroid of
    steel or moment of the tensile force T
    about the line of action of the total
    compressive force C.

    ■ Mb = C*jb*d = (½)*σcbc*kb*jb*b*d^2
    Mb = T*jb*d = σst*Ast*jb*d = (Pt,bal/100)*σst*jb*b*d^2
    [Ast = (Pt,bal/100)*b*d], where pt,bal = balanced percentage of steel

    Mb = Rb*b*d^2; where Rb = (½)*σcbc*kb*jb = (Pt,bal/100)*σst*jb


    And jb= (1- kb/3)
    (½)*σcbc*kb*jb*b*d^2 = σst*Ast*jb*d
    => (½)*σcbc*kb*b*d = σst*Ast => (Pt,bal/100)*b*d*σst = (½)*σcbc*kb*b*d

    => Pt,bal = 50*kb*(σcbc/σst)
