Doubly Reinforced Rectangular Sections
Beams having steel reinforcement on both the tension and
compression sides are called doubly reinforced sections. Doubly
reinforced sections are useful in case of limited cross sectional
dimensions being unable to provide the required bending strength
even when the maximum reinforcement ratio is used.

Reasons for Providing Compression Reinforcement
2- Ease of fabrication
• use corner bars to hold & anchor stirrups
4
Reasons for Providing Compression Reinforcement
3- Increased Ductility
reduced stress block depth → increase in steel strain larger
curvature are obtained.
