rectangular beam has a width of 300 mm and an effective depth of 500 mm. It is reinforced with 4-32mm Ø bars at the tension side and 2-16mm Ø bars at the compression side. Top bars are placed 65mm from the top of the beam. fc =25 MPa, fy = 415MPa. What is the resulting stress in the reinforcements for tension?
