Shear and Flexural Reinforcement Design of a Singly Reinforced Rectangle
EXAMPLE DESCRIPTION
The flexural and shear strength of a rectangular concrete beam is tested in this
example.
A simply supported beam is subjected to a uniform factored load of 36.67 kN/m.
This example is tested using the Turkish TS 500-2000(R2018) concrete design
code. The flexural and shear reinforcing computed is compared with independent
results.
