    As Required - Ultimate Strength Method: Given: Find: 0.278 In2

    Uploaded by

    Anthony Gravagne
    This document provides the results of calculating the required area of reinforcing steel (As) for a concrete beam section based on an ultimate strength method. The given bending moment (Mu) is 5.643 ft-kips. The calculated required As is 0.278 in^2. A trial As of 0.372 in^2 is then checked against design requirements and found to provide adequate moment capacity with a factor of safety of 0.825.
