A 300 mm X 450 mm exterior beam is reinforced with 2 - Ø20 mm and 1 – Ø25 mm bars on the first layer of tension reinforcement (larger bar is at the middle), 2 tension reinforcement, 3 – Ø25 mm for compression reinforcement and Ø12 mm for stirrups. From analysis the depth of the tension zone is 344 mm, if the tension steel has a yield strength of 420 MPa and the compression steel has a yield strength of 414 MPa.
