Formulas in Concrete

This document provides descriptions and formulas for concrete design. It discusses working stress design which allows elements to remain within the elastic limit. Key aspects covered include: - Modulus of elasticity formulas for concrete and steel - Allowable stresses for concrete and steel - Internal couple method for singly supported beams with one layer of reinforcement - Transformed section method for singly supported beams with one layer of reinforcement

only stressed within the elastic limit.

Assumptions:
Formula:
1. Plane section remains plane after
1. Modulus of Elasticity of concrete: bending, i.e., the variation in strain is
linear across the depth of the member.
2. Stress is proportional to strain
3. Concrete does not take tension
4. Perfect bond exist between steel and
concrete such that no slippage occurs

2. Modulus of Elasticity of Steel:

Internal Couple Method (Singly Supported,


One Layer)
