4.13 (B) A concrete beam, reinforced in tension only, has a rectangular cross-section, width 200 mm and effective depth to the tensile steel 500 mm, and is required to resist a bending moment of 70 kN m. Assuming a modular ratio of 15, calculate (a) the minimum area of reinforcement required if the stresses in steel and concrete are not to exceed 190 MN/m and 8 MN/m respectively, and (b) the stress in the non-critical material when the bending moment is applied.

4.13 (B). A concrete beam, reinforced in tension only, has a rectangular cross-section, width 200 mm and effective
depth to the tensile steel 500 mm, and is required to resist a bending moment of 70 kN m. Assuming a modular ratio
of 15, calculate (a) the minimum area of reinforcement required if the stresses in steel and concrete are not to exceed
190 MN/m and 8 MN/m respectively, and (b) the stress in the non-critical material when the bending moment is
applied.
