FOR ONE BEAM

Span Length=72”
Beam length=75”
Width ,b=5”
Depth ,D=8”
Volume of beam=(75*5*8)=3000 in^3
Taking ratio 1:1.5:3
From calculation,
x=545.45
So,
Cement =545.45 in^3 = .31 cft
With factor, CEMENT= (.31*1.58)=.498cft
CEMENT in Kg = .498*(50/1.25)=19.94 Kg CEMENT

Sand=(545.45*1.5) /(12^3) cft = .473 cft


With factor=(0.473*1.58)= 0.748 cft SAND
C.A=(545.5*3)/12^3 cft=.94 cft
With factor = 0.94*1.58 = 1.49 cft C.A
Calculation of brick -
Vol. of C.A req =1.5 cft
Vol. of a brick =(9*4.5*3)/(12^3) = .07 cft
No. of brick = Vol. of coarse agg./vol. of brick
= (1.5/0.07)=21.33 = 22 No. of brick
(Assuming that we will get this amount of coarse
aggregate from the twice no. of brick .)
REQ. No. of BRICK = 22*2=44

Design of steel:
L=72” W=5” D=8”
f’c =2000 psi fy=60000 psi
Assume P=8220 lb
Mu=(PL/8)=73980 lb-in =73.98 k-in
.005=.009
Mu=Mn
73.98=.9*.009**60*bd2(1-.59*(.009*60)/2)
bd2=181.07
cc=2”
As=bd=.009*5*6=.27in2
Taking #3 bar No. of bar =.27/.11=2.45  3
Length of bar =(72*3)inch=5.48 m
Weight of main steel = (5.48*0.62)=3.39 kg  4kg
Design of stirrups:
Vc = 2*1*2000*5”*6”
=2683.28 Ib
Vc=.75*2683.28= 2012.46Ib
Smax= (Avfyt)/(.75√ 2000 *5)=
76.70”> (Avfyt)/(50 bw)=52.8”
Smax=d/2=3” (GOVERNS)
Smax=24”
From Support to 1/3 of beam
S= Smax/2=1.5”(Governs)
S=(*.22*fy*d)/(Vu-Vc)=9.56”
Total no. of stirrup = (16+16+8)=40
Length of each stirrup =2(3+5.125)= 16.25”
 16.5”
Total length of stirrup for one beam
=(40*16.5)=660 inch =16.764 m
weight of stirrup = (16.764*0.62)=10.39  11 kg

REQUIREMENTS FOR PROJECT

CEMENT=(19.94*2)=39.88 Kg
SAND=(.748*2)=1.496 cft
BRICK= 44
C.A= 1.49 cft
Steel= 2(4+11)= 30 kg 35/40 kg #3bar
