Maximum Steel Quantity Estimation for Beams Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Maximum Quantity of Steel = 0.02*Number of Beams*Volume of Beam*Density of Steel
Q_steel = 0.02*No_beams*V_beam*ρ_steel
This formula uses 4 Variables

Variables Used

Maximum Quantity of Steel - (Measured in Kilogram) - Maximum Quantity of Steel is the maximum mass of steel in kg that we will be requiring in the construction of a particular RCC component.
Number of Beams - Number of Beams defines the total number of RCC beams in the structure of a given specification.
Volume of Beam - (Measured in Cubic Meter) - Volume of beam is the volume of 1 RCC beam of given specification which is calculated by multiplying 3 dimensions of beam that is width , length, depth.
Density of Steel - (Measured in Kilogram per Cubic Meter) - Density of steel is usually taken as 7860kg/m3 in civil domain. Though there exists steel of different densities Carbon steel's density is about 7.84 g/cm3,stainless steel's is about 8.03 g/cm3.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Number of Beams: 16 --> No Conversion Required
Volume of Beam: 0.207 Cubic Meter --> 0.207 Cubic Meter No Conversion Required
Density of Steel: 7860 Kilogram per Cubic Meter --> 7860 Kilogram per Cubic Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

Q_steel = 0.02*No_beams*V_beam*ρ_steel --> 0.02*16*0.207*7860

Evaluating ... ...

Q_steel = 520.6464

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

520.6464 Kilogram --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

520.6464 Kilogram <-- Maximum Quantity of Steel

Maximum Steel Quantity Estimation for Beams

Go Maximum Quantity of Steel = 0.02*Number of Beams*Volume of Beam*Density of Steel

Maximum Steel Quantity Estimation for Beams Formula

Maximum Quantity of Steel = 0.02*Number of Beams*Volume of Beam*Density of Steel
Q_steel = 0.02*No_beams*V_beam*ρ_steel

Steel Quantity Estimation

As per the standard, the minimum percentage of steel is considered as 1% of the volume of the concrete required and the maximum percentage of steel is 2% of the volume of the concrete required for making the beam.

As we know, Density = Mass/volume

So, Mass = Density X Volume

As we know the density of steel bar = 7860kg/m3

Therefore, Quantity of steel needed=0.02 X 7860 X Volume of beams
