ASSIGNMENT ON CHAPTER ONE


Assignment Title: Moment curvature

Due Date: March 18, 2016


Although it is not needed explicitly in ordinary design, the relation between moment applied to a given beam
section and the resulting curvature, through the full range of loading to failure, is important to the study of:

 Member ductility,
 Understanding the development of plastic hinges, and
 Accounting for the redistribution of elastic moments that occur in most RC structures before collapse.

The ductility of a beam cross section depends on:

 Material grade (both for steel and concrete)


 Member dimension
 Reinforcement detail

Thus, the aim of this assignment is to help students understand the contribution of the above
mentioned variables to the ductility of a beam cross section.

I. Ductility of slab
The following slab element shown below has a width b=1000mm, a height of h=180mm
and an effective depth d=161mm.if the slab is made C25/30 and steel S-400, plot the
moment curvature diagram for the slab at least four points.

II. Consider a beam section shown in the figure below:

Asc (p Ø q)

d
Ast (n Ø m)

Where:

 b is the beam width in mm


 d is the effective depth in mm
 fyk is the characteristics strength of the rebar in MPa
 fcu is the characteristics cubic compressive strength of the concrete in MPa
 Ast area of steel in the tension side
 Asc area of steel in the compression side
 n is number of bars in the tension side
 m is size of bar in tension side
 p is number of bars in the compression side
 q is size of bar in the compression side

Use ( γc =1.5 , γs= 1.15 and concrete cover 25mm)

below and briefly discuss the contribution of each variable.
