Design Data

fc = 4 ksi normal weight concrete (wc = 150 lb/ft3)

fy = 60 ksi

Dead load, DL = 12 kip (self-weight is negligible) applied at the free end

Live load, LL = 12 kip applied at the free end

Beam span length, L = 100 in. = 8.33 ft

Use #9 bars for longitudinal reinforcement (As = 1.00 in.2, db = 1.128 in.)

Use #4 bars for stirrups (As = 0.20 in.2, db = 0.50 in.)

Clear cover = 1.5 in.

ACI 318-14 (Table 20.6.1.3.1)

amax = maximum aggregate size = 0.75 in.
