Plinth BeamDesign

The document summarizes the design of a plinth beam with a 6 meter span and 200mm wall height. It includes calculations to determine the required steel reinforcement. The maximum bending moment is 116.6 kN-m. The required area of steel reinforcement is calculated as 690.8 mm2. Four 16mm diameter bars are specified to provide the needed reinforcement area. Shear links with a diameter of 8mm spaced at 454mm are also specified.
