SITUATION NO. 3 (25 points)
A floor system has a slab thickness of 100 mm. The beams that supports the slab are designed as T-beam. The T-
beam has a web thickness of 300 mm and it has a span of 4.75m. The height of T-beam is 530 mm. The clear
distance of the beams to adjacent beams is 2.0m. It is reinforced for tension only with 6 – 32 mmØ and with an
effective depth of 435 mm. Determine the ultimate moment capacity of the beam. f’c = 20.7MPa and fy = 415 MPa.
