SINGLY REINFORCED SECTION
INTERNAL FORCES IN EQUILIBRIUM
MOMENT OF RESISTANCE WITH RESPECT TO STEEL MOMENT OF RESISTANCE WITH RESPECT TO CONCRETE
In design, EC2 limits x to not exceeding 0.45d in order to avoid the sudden failure exhibited by an over-reinforced section. When x = x bal = 0.45d, M represents ultimate moment of resistance of singly reinforced section or balanced moment, M bal ULTIMATE MOMENT OF RESISTANCE OF SINGLY REINFORCED SECTION
