3. A simply supported beam, with permanent and variable actions, is shown in Figure 1 below. (a) Determine the design loads applied on the beam and calculate the support reactions, shear force and bending moment values at some key positions, and draw the shear force diagram (SFD) and bending moment diagram (BMD). PA = 21 KN VA= 20 KN PA = 40 KN PA=9.5 kN/m VA = 35 kN VA = 9 kN/m 2m B 4m 1m + + Figure 1 (b) If the design bending moment in the beam is 275kNm, design the beam as a reinforced concrete beam assuming the characteristic strength of concrete fox=20N/mm² and steel fyk = 250N/mm2. Sketch your final cross section showing overall depth as well as the number and diameter of reinforcing bars. y: Confidential A +
