Moment-Curvature (M-φ) Relation - I
M-φcharacteristics considering IS: 456:
The actual moment-curvature relationship of R.C. prismatic section is obtained from
stress-strain diagram of concrete and steel. Starting from the basic equations, expressions
for the axial force and moment carrying capacity of the section are calculated in nondimensional form.
The equation of the stress strain diagram of the parabolic part for concrete is

1. at ε = 0 , σ = 0,
2. at ε = ε0 , σ = σcu,

3. at ε = ε0,

The permissible compressive stress in concrete are considered as: σcu = 0.446fck
Under any loading condition, the section undergoes strains and consequent stresses. A
linear strain distribution over the depth of cross-section is assumed for stress distribution
in concrete and steel(Figs.1 and 2), giving rise to two possible cases:
1. 0 ≤ ε4 ≤ ε0 and
2. ε0 ≤ ε 4 ≤ εu

Putting different values of ν in the equations (2) and (4) and assigning some specific
values of ε4 (ε4 ≤ 0.0035), corresponding values are calculated. The strain of concrete
being known or assumed, the rotation capacity of the structure is calculated.
Corresponding to this rotation capacity, moment carrying capacity of the structure is
calculated from the equations (3) and (5). For specific values of compression and tensile
steel, the value of ∆ε (ε1+ε4) and µ ( = M / M0 ) are calculated.

2. Moment is high

Two cases may arise regarding the stress in reinforcement

Analysis & Design of Doubly Reinforced Beam

2. Steel Beam Theory.
3. Use of design aids (SP-16)
Strain Compatibility Method
Step1: Choose the value of x. Assume the concrete fails at a compressive strain of 0.0035.
Then draw the strain distribution of the section.
Step2: Calculate strain & corresponding stress in the tensile steel.
T = f st Ast
Step3: Calculate strain & corresponding stress in the compressive steel.
C s = f sc Asc
Step4: Calculate the compressive force in the concrete block C c = 0.36 f ck xb
Step5: Calculate total compressive force as C = C s + C c
Step6: Check if T = C , then assumed neutral axis depth x is OK. Otherwise choose
another suitable x so that T = C
Step7: M u = C c (d − k 2 x ) + C s (d − d / )

Necessity of minimum steel for shear
Clause:26.5.1.6
Minimum steel is necessary to
1. Prevent brittle shear failure, which can occur without shear steel.
2. Guard against any sudden failure of a beam if concrete cover bursts and the bond to the
tension is lost.
3. Prevent failure that can be caused by tension due to shrinkage and thermal stresses and
internal cracking in the beam.
4. Hold the reinforcements in place while pouring the concrete.
5. Act as the necessary ties for the compression steel and make them effective.

• Acts as ‘clamps’ to keep shear cracks from widening.
• Shear resisted by v s apart from vcz , v ay & v d .

Design Procedure for Shear
1. Calculate Vu
2. Calculate φVc Eqn 11-3 or 11-5 (no axial force)
3. Check

Location of Maximum Shear for Beam Design
Non-pre-stressed members:
Sections located less than a distance d from face of support may be designed for same
shear, Vu, as the computed at a distance d.
Compression fan carries load directly into support.
Compression fan carries load into support
Location of Maximum Shear for Beam Design
When:
1. The support reaction introduces compression into the end regions of the member.
2. No concentrated load occurs within d from face of support.
