Determine the usable Flexural Strength Capacity (Design Capacity) of the beam, (Φ Mn), assuming that you have a tension-controlled failure mode for the same beam that has a rectangular cross section with a width b = 18 inch, and a height h = 30 inch, a cover to steel centerline = 2 inch.  if f’c = 4,000 psi and fy = 60,000 psi, The reinforcement ratio is 0.0181.

Is the section ductile? (i.e.is the steel strain value acceptable)?, for the beam with a rectangular section having a width b = 18 inch, and a height h = 30 inch, a cover to steel centerline = 2 inch.  if f’c = 4,000 psi and fy = 60,000 psi. The steel reinforcement was eight bars 8 #11 with a total area of (8 x 1.56 = 12.48 in2). 

For a beam with a rectangular section having a width b = 18 inch, and a height h = 30 inch, a cover to steel centerline = 2 inch.  if f’c = 4,000 psi and fy = 60,000 psi. The steel reinforcement was 2 #7 with a total area of (2 x 0.6 = 1.2 in2). Calculate the actual reinforcement ratio ρ

When obtaining an understanding of an entity’s internal control, an auditor should concentrate on their substance rather than their form because

Regardless of the assessed risks of material misstatement, an auditor should perform some

The audit risk against which the auditor and those who rely on his or her opinion require reasonable protection is a combination of two separate risks at the assertion level. The first risk (consisting of inherent risk and control risk) is that balances, classes of transactions, or disclosures contain material misstatements. The second is that
