A continuous beam’s flexural reinforcement must extend at least _____ from the point where it is no longer needed to resist tension. Assume f’c = 4,000 psi, fyt = 40,000 psi, d = 22 in., w = 16.5 in., and t = 4 in. There are five No. 9 longitudinal tension bars and No. 5 stirrups at 7 in. o.c.

At a point subjected to plane stress, the stresses are σx = –25 ksi, σy = 10 ksi, and τxy = –15 ksi. Determine the angle θp corresponding to the orientation of the principal planes at the point.

Compute φVn for the cross section shown. Assume f’c = 8,000 psi, fyt = 40,000 psi, b = 13 in., d = 20 in., and that there are four No. 9 longitudinal tension bars and No. 5 stirrups at 9 in. o.c.

For a beam with stirrup hooks, the free end of the bar must extend at least _____ from the hook. Assume b1 = 26 in., b2 = 13 in., d1 = 6 in., d2 = 15 in., and that there are three No. 6 longitudinal tension bars and No. 4 stirrups at 6 in. o.c. The stirrup hooks are 90°.

A continuous beam’s flexural reinforcement must extend at least _____ from the point where it is no longer needed to resist tension. Assume f’c = 4,000 psi, fyt = 40,000 psi, b1 = 32 in., b2 = 16 in., d1 = 4 in., d2 = 15 in., and that there are three No. 6 longitudinal tension bars and No. 3 stirrups at 10 in. o.c. The stirrup hooks are 90°.
