3.1 INTRODUCTION
Beam is a horizontal member of structure carrying transverse loads. Beams carry the fly
slab or roof slab and transfers all the loads including its self weight (Beam Self Weight) to ty
columns or walls.
RCC beam is subjected to bending moments and shear force, [Link] the vertical extem
Joad, bending compress the top fibres of the beam and elongates the bottom fibers. The strengtho
the RCC beam depends upon the composite action of concrete and steel.
There are different types of RC beams are constructing in Civil Engineering field intermso
support conditions, i.e. Simply supported beams, cantilever beams, propped cantilever beans
over hanging beams, continuous beams and fixed beams

SONCEPTS OF COMBINED BENDING AND TORSION
inforced concrete structural elements are subjected to torsion in addition to bending moments
ear forces depending on the loading and shape of the structural members.
enerally the torsion occurs in combination with the shear force and bending moment. Torsion
by eccentricity of loading to the axis of the structural element.
ally all beams are subjected to some torsional moment. However in many cases these
small. Normally torsion associated with flexure and shear develops in RC structures

3.2.2 Design of beam section for Torsion
‘The simplified approach recommended by IS:456-2000 for the design of the rectangular beam
section, subjected to torsion combined with flexure and shear, does not require determination of
torsional reinforcement separately from that required for flexure and shear. Instead, the total
longitudinal reinforcement is determined for a fictitious equivalent bending moment which isa
function of flexural moment and torsion, Similarly, the transverse reinforcement is determined for
