If the maximum shear stress at the end of a simply supported R.C.C. beam of 16 m effective span is 10 kg/cm² , the length of the beam having nominal reinforcement, is A)8 cm B)6 m C)8 m D)10 m

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The length of the beam having nominal reinforcement is determined by the span where the shear stress is within the allowable limits. Given the effective span of 16m and the maximum shear stress at the end, a beam with nominal reinforcement would typically be designed to half of this span to ensure shear stresses are within acceptable limits, making the correct answer 8m.
