    This document outlines an assignment for a Reinforced Concrete Structures course. Students are asked to: 1. Design a continuous beam with and without 25% moment redistribution. 2. Draw moment-curvature diagrams to analyze the effects of reinforcement area (Ast and Asc), concrete strength (fcu), steel yield strength (fyk), beam depth (d), and beam width (b) on beam ductility. Parameters are varied one at a time to isolate each variable's contribution to ductility. Effects will be briefly discussed to help understand ductility of beam cross-sections.

    Reinforced Concrete Structures II .
    Assignment On Chapter One; Submission Date April 11, 2023
    Part I
    1) A floor span continuous beam shown below supports a characteristic dead load of 30KN/m
    including self-weight and a variable load of 15KN/m. The cross-section of the beam is
    limited to b=250mm and D=500mm due to architectural reason.
    Use Material C25/30 concrete, S-400 Steel and class I work
    Draw envelope of the design moments and design the continuous beam shown in Fig.
    i. Without moment redistribution
    ii. With 25% moment redistribution

    Part II
    Although it is not needed explicitly in ordinary design, the relation between moment applied to a
    given beam section and the resulting curvature, through the full range of loading to failure, is
    important to the study of:

    • Member ductility,
    • Understanding the development of plastic hinges, and
    • Accounting for the redistribution of elastic moments that occur in most RC structures before
    collapse.
    The ductility of a beam cross section depends on:

    • Material grade (both for steel and concrete)


    • Member dimension
    • Reinforcement detail
    Thus, the aim of this assignment is to help students understand the contribution of the above-
    mentioned variables to the ductility of a beam cross section.

    Consider a beam section shown in the figure below:

    Where:

    • b is the beam width in mm


    • d is the effective depth in mm
    • fyk is the characteristics strength of the rebar in MPa
    • fcu is the characteristics cubic compressive strength of the concrete in MPa
    • Ast area of steel in the tension side
    • Asc area of steel in the compression side
    • n is number of bars in the tension side
    • m is size of bar in tension side
    • p is number of bars in the compression side
    • q is size of bar in the compression side
    Use ( γc =1.5 , γs= 1.15 and concrete cover 25mm)
