Preliminary verification
Concrete · Beam — viga
Simply-supported beam · UNIT 1050:2005
Inputs
| Span L | 6.0 m | Concrete | C30/37 |
| Section b × h | 300 × 550 mm | Reinforcement | B500 |
| Design load w_d | 50 kN/m | Effective depth d | 500 mm |
Verdict
✕ FAIL — governing utilisation 1.201 (flexure)
Governing check — flexure · §42.3
M_Ed = w_d · L² / 8 = 50.0 · 6.0²/8 = 225.0 kN·m
μ = M_Ed / (b·d²·f_cd) = 0.150 → ω = 0.164
A_s = ω·b·d·f_cd/f_yd = 1131 mm² vs 3 Ø 20 (942 mm²)
ratio = A_s,req / A_s,prov = 1.201 → go to 4 Ø 20, or deepen the section
| Check | Clause | Utilisation | Result |
| Bending (bottom steel) | §42.3 | 1.201 | FAIL |
| Shear (stirrups) | §44.2 | 0.612 | PASS |
| Deflection (span/eff. depth) | §50.2 | 0.731 | PASS |
