Curved Concrete Beam Design

This document summarizes the design of a curved concrete beam, including specifications for materials, geometry, loads, moments, shear forces, and reinforcement details. The beam is made of M15 concrete grade and Fe415 steel. It has a width of 500mm, overall depth of 700mm, and effective depth of 650mm. Load analysis determines uniformly distributed dead and live loads and maximum sagging and hogging moments. Longitudinal and transverse reinforcement requirements are calculated and checked against code provisions. Stirrup spacing, bar size, and side reinforcement are also specified.
