How to design Doubly Reinforced Beams

Concrete has quite high compressive strength, but low tensile strength. However, steel has very high tensile strength. That is why we insert steel reinforcements in the tension zones of a structure. Now, you can provide reinforcements in concrete beams in two ways - single reinforcement (commonly used) and double reinforcement. Today, we will talk about doubly reinforced beams.
