Discuss the assumptions made in the limit state design of reinforced concrete compression members.
An R. C. C. beam of size 350 wide and 550mm deep is reinforced by tension bars as 5nos. of 25mm dia. and compression bars as 3nos. of 20mm dia. Calculate the moment of resistance of beam if the clear cover is 25mm on both the sides.
