You are considering a beam design that has dimensions of b = 16 in., h = 24 in., and d = 21.5 in. The beam is singly reinforced with all of the reinforcement in a single row. The concrete strength is 6,700 psi, and the yield strength of the reinforcement is 60,000 psi. What cross-sectional area of reinforcement is needed to achieve a strain in the reinforcement of 0.0075?

Another word for excessive exaggeration is:

Which symbol represents the distance from the extreme fiber in compression to the centroid of the longitudinal reinforcement on the tension side of a reinforced concrete member?

A simply supported beam with dimensions of b = 12 in., h = 24 in., d = 21.5 in., and L = 21 ft supports a uniform service (unfactored) dead load consisting of its own weight plus 1.7 kips/ft and a uniform service (unfactored) live load of 1.5 kips/ft. The concrete is normal-weight concrete. Determine the moment due to the factored loads, Mu.      

A beam has dimensions of b = 16 in., h = 24 in., and d = 21.5 in. and is reinforced with 2 No. 6 bars. The concrete strength is 7,000 psi, and the yield strength of the reinforcement is 60,000 psi. If the depth of the compressive stress block is a = 0.554622 in. and the strain in the reinforcement is εs = 0.078407, determine the strength φMn for this beam. Assume the transverse reinforcement is not spirals.

Most concrete design codes specify a maximum usable compressive strain at which the nominal moment strength of the section is to be calculated. For ACI 318, this maximum usable strain value is 0.005.

Carbonation shrinkage occurs when moisture diffuses out of the concrete and the exterior shrinks more rapidly than the interior.

A beam has dimensions of b = 14 in., h = 26 in., and d = 23.5 in. and is reinforced with 5 No. 7 bars. The concrete strength is 3,400 psi, and the yield strength of the reinforcement is 60,000 psi. If the depth to the neutral surface is c = 5.233927 in., determine the strain in the reinforcement.
