CONCRETE BEAM TENSION REINFORCEMENT ONLY - FIND OPTIMUM SECTION
This Page Has Been Accessed 3973 Times




Input your factored MU in inch lbs and the span of the beam in inches. Other fields may be Adjusted if required. The analysis uses a minimum beam width of 6" and always considers at least two reinforcing bars. The analysis considers that the beam's width to height ratio is never less than 1 for good design practice.


Input the MU in inch lbs.
Input Concrete Compressive strength in psi.
Input reinforcing steel yield stress in psi
Input the span of the beam in inches
(used to calculate concrete & steel costs)
Input required reinforcing concrete cover in inches
The following values are used for calculating relative
costs for different beam sections. These costs are used
for comparitive purposes and should not be used for
formal estimates. Values may be changed if desired.
Cost of formwork per sq ft
Cost of Concrete per cu yd
Cost of Reinforcing Steel per ton
