RCC Beam and Slab Design Problems

The document outlines various numerical problems related to the design and analysis of reinforced cement concrete (RCC) structures, including beams, slabs, and columns. It covers safety checks against bending, effective depth calculations, moment resistance for doubly reinforced beams, and axial load capacity for columns. The problems utilize specific material grades (M20, M25, Fe415, Fe500) and require calculations for loads, moments, and reinforcement areas.

Numerical type Questions In RCC :-

1) A simply supported RCC beam of span 4 m is reinforced with 4 bars of 12 mm diameter


in tension. The beam is 230 mm wide and effective depth is 400 mm. The beam carries
a uniformly distributed load (UDL) of 20 kN/m (inclusive of self-weight).

Check the safety of the section against bending. Use: M20 grade concrete & Fe415 steel.

2) Design a singly reinforced beam of clear span 5 m subjected to a UDL of 25 kN/m


including self-weight.
Assume: Width = 230 mm, Use M20 and Fe415, Effective cover = 30 mm
Determine:
Effective depth (d)
Required area of tension steel (Ast)

3) Why is doubly reinforced beam used in RCC design?


Using your answer, determine the moment of resistance of a doubly reinforced beam (b
= 300 mm, d = 500 mm) with: 3 bars of 20 mm in tension, 2 bars of 16 mm in
compression
Use M25 and Fe415.
4) A simply supported one-way slab is spanning 3.5 m (shorter span) and is supported on
walls 230 mm thick. It carries a live load of 3 kN/m² and floor finish of 1 kN/m².
Use M20 concrete and Fe415 steel.

 Calculate the total factored load on the slab per m².


 Determine the maximum bending moment in the slab.
 Suggest an effective depth assuming overall depth = 150 mm and cover = 20 mm.

5) Design a two-way slab of size 3 m × 4 m, simply supported on all four sides with corners
not restrained (free to lift).
Given:

 Live load = 3 kN/m²


 Floor finish = 1.5 kN/m²
 Use M20 and Fe415
 Effective cover = 20 mm
 Overall depth = 150 mm
 Calculate:
 Factored load
 Maximum bending moment in shorter and longer spans
 Area of reinforcement in both directions (Ast-short and Ast-long)
6) An RCC column is 300 mm × 300 mm in size and has 4 bars of 20 mm diameter as
longitudinal reinforcement.

 Concrete grade: M20


 Steel grade: Fe415
 Assume effective cover = 40 mm
 Calculate the axial load carrying capacity of the column using the formula:
 Pu = 0.4 fck Ac + 0.67 fy Asc

7) Design a circular short RCC column to carry a factored axial load of 600 kN.
Use:

 M25 concrete, Fe500 steel


 Assume 1.5% steel
 Provide minimum 6 bars

Determine:

 Diameter of column
 Area and number of bars
 Diameter of stirrups (ties)
