ACI 3. 18 1. 1 Reinforced concrete beam design parameters. Reinforcement Ratio The amount of steel reinforcement in concrete members should be limited. Over reinforcing the placement of too much reinforcementwill not allow the steel to yield before the concrete crushes and there is a sudden failure. The reinforcement ratio in concrete beam design is th following fraction The reinforcement ratio, must be less than a value determined with a concrete strain of 0. When the strain in the reinforcement is 0. For smaller strains the resistance factor reduces to 0. Maximum Reinforcement Based on the limiting strain of 0. As max The values of 1 are presented in the following Table Minimum Reinforcement Minimum reinforcement is provided even if the concrete can resist the tension, in order to control cracking. Minimum required reinforcement but not less than where fy is the yield strength in psibw is the width of the web of a concrete T Beam cross sectiond is the effective depth from the top of a reinforced concrete beam to the centroid of the tensile steel Cover for Reinforcement Cover of concrete overunder the reinforcement must be provided to protect the steel from corrosion. For indoor exposure, 1. Bar Spacing Minimum bar spacings are specified to allow proper consolidation of concrete around the reinforcement. The minimum spacing is the maximum of 1 in, a bar diameter, or 1. Effective width beff. In case of T Beams or Gamma Beams, the effective slab can be calculated as follows For interior T sections, beffis the smallest of L4, bw 1. For exterior T sections, b. E is the smallest ofbw L1. When the web is in tension the minimum reinforcement required is the same as for rectangularsections with the web width bw in place of b. When the flange is in tension negative bending, theminimum reinforcement required is the greater value of where fy is the yield strength in psibw is the width of the web of a concrete T Beam cross sectionbeff is the effective flange width. Compression Reinforcement If a section is doubly reinforced, it means there is steel in the beam seeing compression. The force in the compression steel that may not be yielding is Cs Asfs 0. The total compression that balances the tension is now T Cc Cs. The moment taken about the centroid of the compression stress is Mn Td a2Csa d where As is the area of compression reinforcementd is the effective depth to the centroid of the compression reinforcement Because the compression steel may not be yielding, the neutral axis x must be found from the force equilibrium relationships, and the stress can be found based on strain to see if it has yielded.
