Question

A simply supported RCC beam of effective length 5 m and section of size 200 mm x 300 mm is having flexural strength of 18 kN-m. Calculate the maximum external udl that can be applied to the beam before failure. Take self-weight as 1 kN/m.

A.

4.76 kN/m

B.

5.76 kN/m

C.

3.76 kN/m

D.

6.76 kN/m

Correct option is A

Given,
section of beam = 200 mm x 300 mm
effective length = 5 m
flexural strength = 18 kN-m
self-weight = 1 kN/m
we know that,
