PART B (5x15=80 Marks)
1. A rectangular singly reinforcement beam 300mm wide and 500mm effective depth, is used as a simply supported over an effective span 6m. The reinforcement consists 4 bars of 20mm diameter.  If the beam carries a load of 12kN/m (Include self-weight) Find the stress developed in concrete and steel Take m=19
2. Design a two way slab by working stress method for a residential floor to suit the following data. Size of floor=4m x 6m, edge condition simply supported slab on all sides without torsion at corners.  Thickness of supports 200mm.  Live Load on floor 2kN/m2, Floor finish 0.6kN/muse M20 grade concrete and Fe415 steel.
3. Derive an expression for moment of Resistance of a Reinforced concrete cross section (Rectangular section)
4. Determine the ultimate moment of resistance of the doubly reinforced beam of rectangular section width 300 mm. reinforced with 5 bars of 25mm dia at an effective depth of 600 mm the compression steel is made up of 2 bars of 25mm dia at an effective cover of 60mm Adopt M20 concrete and Fe415 bars. Using limit state method.
5. Find the moment of Resistance of T-beam having the following data breadth of flange=740mm, effective depth=400, breadth of web=240mm, Ast=5 bars of 20mm dia of mid steel bar, depth of flange=100mmUse M15 concrete.
