Scope
You are tasked to design a beam to support a roof slab.
Design Data
1. Flat roof carrying uniformly distributed live load of 20
psf
2. Flat roof with 6-inch thickness and 1.5
feet overhang.
3. Beam simply supported spanning 32.5 feet with 3000psi
strength
See drawing below of the building.
Design Requirement
design and detail:
1. Simply supported singly reinforced beam to support flat roof.
All
necessary checks internal equilibrium should be satisfied.
2. Check Deflection in accordance with 2018 IBC Deflection
Limit. Young’s
Modulus should be calculated to the ACI 318-14 (57,000√𝑓c)
𝑝𝑠𝑖
3. Detail the beam showing all required information to assist in
the
construction of the beam as well the neutral axis and
compressive zone.
internal width between column 15 feet and span of beam 32.5
feet.
