    The document provides specifications for designing a T-beam, including dimensions, material properties, and design calculations. It determines that the beam is a T-beam based on the effective depth and calculations. It calculates the required tensile and compressive reinforcement areas and checks that the concrete capacity is sufficient.

    The document provides an example of designing the reinforcement for a T-beam based on given parameters like required strength, beam dimensions, material properties etc.

    The required flexural strength is 700 kN-m. The beam dimensions are given as width 250 mm, height 500 mm, slab thickness 80 mm with a span of 7300 mm and spacing of 1.5 m. The material properties like concrete strength, steel yield strength are also provided.

    The steps shown include calculating the tension reinforcement ratio, distance from extreme compression to tension, effective depth, effective flange width, moment capacity without reinforcement, steel area, moment capacity with steel etc.
