Question

A rectangular beam has a width of 300mm and an effective depth of 537.50 mm to the centroid of tension steel bars. Tension reinforcement consists of 6 – 28mm dia in two rows, compression reinforcement consists of 2–22mm dia, fc’ = 27.6MPa, fy = 414.7MPa, d’ = 60mm, L = 4m, the Unit weight of concrete is 24.56kN/cu.m

1.) The depth of the concrete stress block is ____ mm.

 

From the given properties of the beam, which of the following is true?
A The compression steel and the tension steel yield at failure.
B The compression steel yield at failure and the tension steel does not.
The tension steel yield at failure and the compression steel does not.
D The compression steel and the tension steel do not yield at failure.
