Wide rc beam on small column
Wide rc beam on small column
(OP)
Hi
Recently i design a wide rc beam 2.4m x 0.6m with supporting one way rc slab. Should i use the normal design method of RC beam with ratio of width /height <1.0 to design wide beam ? how does the load at the overhang of beam near the small column transfer to the column if we use normal conventional method of designing the wide beams supported on small column. Any suggestions ? Thanks

Refer to the same topic, how long is the short portion of beam bending in the 2.4 meter direction over the top of column need to be used for checking. Would the wide beam subject to torsion when one side of one way slab is loaded with live load ?
