It starts with introducing the reader to the statical system of R/C beams. Types of loads on beams and method of calculations of such loads are presented. Design of R/C beams to withstand ultimate limit states of failure by flexure, shear, or bond is illustrated. Reinforcement detailing is also presented. The chapter also contains numerous illustrative examples. 185 en 6.1 Statical Systems of R/C Beams Depending on the conditions at the supports, R/C beams may be classified as: a Simple beams, which can be monolithically cast with columns or supported on masonry walls (Figs. 6.1a and 6.1b).

In Such case, the slab carries the load in its short direction and acts as a one-way slab. Accordingly, only the beams (AB and CD) of long spans support the loads from the slab.

For two-way slabs supported on relatively similar beams on the four sides, the lines defining the slab area associated to each beam bisect the corner between the two edges and are inclined 45° to either edge. Such distribution means that the loads on beams supporting two-way slabs are either triangular or trapezoidal.

Then, the triangular or the trapezoidal load can be replaced by uniformly distributed loads along the span of the beam, except for cantilever beams.

For the wall panel bounded between two columns, only wall loads bounded by 60° tines from columns cause bending moments and shearing forces in the beam (Fig. 6.7.b) This is mainly due to arching action of the wall. ‘The trapezoidal wall load can be replaced by an equivalent uniform load giving the same maximum internal forces.

This lateral restraint is maintained by floor slabs attached to the compression zone ( see Fig, 6.9). Figure (6.9b) shows a case in which the compression zone of the beams is not laterally supported against sidesway buckling by the floor slabs. In such a case, and in other cases where the floor slabs does not exist. the code sets the following limits on the clear distance between point of inflections in the lateral direction: (a) _ For simply supported or continuous beams, the lesser of 40 b ot 200 b/d (b) For cantilever beams with lateral restraint only at support: 20 b or 80b%d whichever is less: Compression “zone \ Compression zone B ne Seo. 1-1 Seo. 2-2 (a): Laterally supported beam (b): Laterally unsupported beam Fig, 6.9 Lateral restraint against sidesway buckling 196 6.5 Linear Elastic Analysis of Continuous Beams The ECCS 203 adopts linear elastic analysis for the determination of bending moments and shear forces in continuous beams. Critical load arrangement normally requires that alternate spans are loaded and adjacent spans are unloaded. The ECCS 203 permits the calculation of bending moments and shear forces based on the assumption of rigid knife-edge supports. This assumption may lead to very conservative values of the bending moments especially when the columns are stiff and beam to column joints are monolithic. It should be mentioned that for exterior columns moments induced by column restraint must be taken into account. A further simplification is offered by the Code for continuous beams of nearly equal spans and depths under uniformly distributed loads, provided that variations in spans do not exceed 20% of the longest span, bending moments and shear forces may be estimated as shown in Fig. 6.10. The bending moments obtained using the coefficients of Fig. 6.10 should not be redistributed. For cases of particularly heavy live loads, the coefficients of the figure may not be applicable; an analysis of the continuous beams as being supported on knife-edge supports would be required.

Fig. 6.11 Effective depth for a reinforced concrete beam 6.6.1 Concrete Cover It is necessary to have a concrete cover (a) between the surface of the beam and the reinforcing bars (refer to Fig. 6.12) for three reasons: 1. To bond the reinforcement to the concrete so that the two elements act together. The efficiency of bond increases as the cover increases. A cover of at least one bar diameter is required for this purpose in beams. 2. To protect the reinforcement against corrosion. In highly corrosive environments such as beams constructed near ocean spray the cover should be increased. 3. To protect the reinforcement from strength loss due to overheating in the case of fire. In this text, the amounts of clear cover will be based on the recommendations of the ECCS 203. 198 6.6.2 Bar Spacing ‘The arrangement of bars within a beam must allow: 1. Sufficient concrete on all sides of each bar to transfer forces into or out of the bars. 2, Sufficient space so that the fresh concrete can be placed and compacted around the bars 3, Sufficient space to allow a vibrator to reach through the bottom of the beam. Referring to Fig. 6.12, the Egyptian code requires that the distance b should be Largest used bar diameter Qu. potagerot{ L.Smax aggregate size Fig, 6.12 Spacing between individual bars 6.6.3 Egyptian Code Recommendations Figure 6.11 summarizes the requirements of the Egyptian Code regarding the spacing and arrangements of the bars in beams. It should be mentioned that when bars are placed in two more layers the bars in the top layer must be directly over those in the other layers, to allow the concrete and vibrators to pass through the layers. If the depth of the beam exceeds 700 mm, longitudinal skin reinforcements (shrinkage side bars) are to be provided along both side faces of the beam. The area Of this reinforcement should not be less than 8% of the area of the main reinforcement; the spacing should not exceed 300 mm (see Fig. 6.13). Beam flange should be built integrally with or effectively connected to the web to justify the design of the beam as having a flanged section. Also, top reinforcement (normal to the beam axis) should be provided in the flange as a condition of utilizing the monolithic action between flange and web. The area of such reinforcement should not be less than 0.3% of flange’s cross section. It should be extended to cover the total width of the effective flange. This transverse reinforeement shall be space not farther apart than 200 mm. Stirrups in the web should extend to the top of the flange to ensure monolithic action between the flange and web. t t ___ shrinkage side bars t<700 mm t> 700 mm Fig. 6.13 Provisions for shrinkage reinforcement Photo 6.2 Typical Slab-beam structural system. 200 Example 6.1 Figure (EX. 6.1) shows a_ plan and two sectional elevations of a reinforced concrete structure.

Calculation of Loads 2.1 Own weight of the beam ‘The width of the wall on axis (B) is 250 mm, accordingly the width of the beam is taken as 250 mm. For simply supported beams, it is reasonable to assume the thickness of the beam as (span/10). Thus the cross sectional dimensions of the beam = 250 mm x 700 mm Own weight of the beam = width x (beam thickness ~ slab thickness) x , = 0.25 x (0.70-0.15) x 25 = 3.44 kN/m 2.2 Loads transmitted to the beam through the slab Dead load of slab, g, = Own weight of the slab + Flooring = 0.15 x 25 + 1.50 = 5.25 kN/m? Live load of slab, p, = 2.0 KN/m* The slab load distribution is shown schematically on the plan. Slabs $; and $, are Classified as two-way slabs. Slab 3 is a one way slab that transmits its load to the long span beams located on axes 2 and 3. Slab S, is a cantilever slab that transmits its load directly to the beams on axis (1). The slab load is transmitted to beam Bl in two parts; the first part is transmitted directly and is composed of a trapezoidal load and a triangular load while the second part is transmitted indirectly as a concentrated load through the beam on axis (2). 202 Sts [ee | Crm Direct slab load on beam B1 | The trapezoidal load has its maximum value at the mid-span and vanishes at the supports.

It is required to: a- Propose the structural system of the floor as a slab-beam type system. b- Draw the load distribution from the slabs to the surrounding beams Solution The structural engineer works very closely with the architect when proposing the structural system of the floor in order to meet the architectural requirements Generally, one provides beams at the locations of the masonry walls. The width of the beam is usually equal to that of the wall. Beams are also provided in order to get reasonable slab dimensions. According to the previously mentioned points, the structural plan of the floor is shown in Fig. EX. 6.2b. The following points can be observed: 1- There are two terraces in the floor plan. They are both cantilever slabs since the span of the cantilever is relatively small (1.2m). For spans of about 2.0m, cantilever slabs can be economically utilized. For longer spans, deflection considerations limited the use of cantilever slabs. 2 In the corridor area, no walls exist on axes 3, 4 and 5. Hence, we can either provide beams between the columns on axes C and D or leave the corridor area beam free. If it is architecturally accepted, then providing beams improves the framing action of the building 3- The slabs of the structural plan of Fig. EX. 6.2b have relatively reasonable dimensions. No need to provide beams to reduce the area of such slabs. For example, the floor slab of the meeting room has dimensions of 4.0m x 7.6m. The area of such a slab could be divided into two parts if one provides a beam on axis E, between axes 5 and 6. However, such a beam is not architecturally acceptable. Accordingly, the structural engineer should provide the required thickness and steel reinforcement of such slab of dimensions 4.0m x 7.6m in order to preserve the architectural requirements. The same observation applies to the floor slab of room (5), where a beam could have been provided on axis 7 between the columns located on axes A and C. 4-Most of the floor beams are supported directly on columns. In some cases, however, beams can be supported on other beams. For example, the beam located on axis 8 is supported on cantilevers extended from the beams located on axes A and C. The load distribution from the slabs to the surrounding beams is shown in Fig. EX. 6.2c. 208 4000 ROOM (4) ROOM (1) ROOM (2) 4000 woaroo 17200 mm RITCHE! 19700 mm.
