Area of steel required; Asinttopreq = max(Asinttopbend, Asinttopmin) = 421 mm 2
PASS - Asinttopreq <= Asinttop - Area of reinforcement provided in top of internal beams is adequate

Reinforcement required in bottom

Width of section in compression zone; bintbtm = bint + 2 × (hint - hslab)/tan(αint) + 0.2 × lint = 1312 mm
K factor; Kintbtm = MΣint/(fcu × bintbtm × dintbtm2) = 0.009
Lever arm; zintbtm = dintbtm × min(0.95, 0.5 + √(0.25 - Kintbtm/0.9)) = 330 mm
Area of steel required for bending; Asintbtmbend = MΣint/((1.0/γs) × fy × zintbtm) = 415 mm 2
Minimum area of steel required; Asintbtmmin = 0.0013 × 1.0 × bwint × hint = 328 mm 2
Area of steel required; Asintbtmreq = max(Asintbtmbend, Asintbtmmin) = 415 mm 2
PASS - Asintbtmreq <= Asintbtm - Area of reinforcement provided in bottom of internal beams is adequate

Internal beam shear check

Applied shear stress; vint = VΣint/(bwint × dinttop) = 0.373 N/mm 2
Tension steel ratio; ρint = 100 × Asinttop/(bwint × dinttop) = 0.280
From BS8110-1:1997 - Table 3.8
Design concrete shear strength; vcint = 0.483 N/mm 2
vint <= vcint + 0.4N/mm2 - Therefore minimum links required
Link area to spacing ratio required; Asv_upon_svreqint = 0.4N/mm 2 × bwint/((1.0/γs) × fys) = 0.580 mm
Link area to spacing ratio provided; Asv_upon_svprovint = Nintlink×π×φintlink2/(4×svint) = 0.628 mm
PASS - Asv_upon_svreqint <= Asv_upon_svprovint - Shear reinforcement provided in internal beams is adequate
