Complete the bending design of a simply supported reinforcedconcrete beam with the following parameters: Service loads areWD = 2.5 Kip/ft and WL = 1.5 Kip/ft, Span =16 ft, f'c = 6,000 psi, fy = 40,000 psi, b = 12 in., cover to thecenter of the steel = 3 in. Assume phi = 0.9, but make sure thatphi is actually 0.9 at the end. Find h by doubling the recommendedminimum height for this beam and provide it in whole inches roundedup to the nearest inch.
