Isolated Beams
In this kind of beam the flange is used to provide compression area the thickness of flange should be greater than 1/2bw, and width should be less than or equal to 4bw.
Internal T Beams
1. Fourth the clear span length of the beam, L/4.
2. Width of web plus 16 times slab thickness, bw +16hf.
3. Center-to-center spacing of the beams.
L Shaped Beam
1. Effective flange width should be equal to or smaller than (bw+(Clear span/4))
2. Effective flange width should be equal to or smaller than (bw+(6hf)
3. Effective flange width should be equal to or smaller than (bw+half clear distance to the next clear web beam)
Design Process
T section beam calculates the dimensions of the beam and the reinforcement area. The size of the beam web affects the size of the rectangular beam.
