Question 1 For the reinforced concrete T beam shown in Figure 1, at the ultimate limit state, M* = 530 kNm. For this beam f'c=32 MPa, Ec = 30 100 MPa, and fsy = 500 MPa. a) Calculate Mu for this beam and determine if ©Mu<M*. b) Modify the cross-section so that oMu increases by approximately 20%. Verify your new design for both strength and ductility. 1400 200 590 d=520 不 5 N24 500 Figure 1
