6.1 General
• These requirements apply to frame members a
resisting earthquake induced forces and designed to resist
flexure.These members shall satisfy the following
requirements.
6.1.1 The factored axial stress on the member under
earthquake loading shall not exceed .
6.1.2 The member shall preferably have a width-to-
depth ratio of more than 0.3.
6.1.3 The width of the member shall not be less than
200 mm.
6.1.4 The depth D of the member shall preferably be
not more than l/4 of the clear span.
6.2 Longitudinal Reinforcement
•6.2.1
a) The top as well as bottom reinforcement shall
consist of at least two bars throughout the member
length.
b) The tension steel ratio on any face, at any section,
shall not be less than , where and are in
MPa.
6.2.2 The maximum steel ratio on any face at any
section, shall not exceed = 0.025.
6.2.3 The positive steel at a joint face must be at least
equal to half the negative steel at that face.
6.2.4 The steel provided at each of the top and bottom
face of the member at anv section along its length
shall be at least equal to one-fourth of the maximum
negative moment steel provided at the face of either
joint.
6.2.5 In an external joint, both the top and the bottom bars of the
beam shall be provided with anchorage length, beyond the inner face
of the column, equal to the development length in tension plus
10 times the bar diameter minus the allowance for 90 degree
bend. ( see Fig. 1 ) In an internal joint, both face bars of the
beam shall be taken continuously through the column.

6.2.6 The longitudinal bars shall be spliced, only if hoops
are provided over the entire splice length, at a spacing not
exceeding 150 mm ( see Fig. 2 ). The lap length shall not be
less than the bar development length in tension. Lap
splices shall not be provided.
(a) within a joint
(b) within a distance 2d from joint face
(c) within a quarter lengh of the member where
flexural yielding may generally occur under the effect of
earthquake forces. Not more than 50 percent of the bars
shall be spliced at one section.

6.3 Web Reinforcement
•6.3.1Web
reinforcement shall consist of vertical hoops.
A vertical hoop is a closed stirrup having a hook with a
10 diameter extension ( but not < 75 mm ) at each end
that is embedded in the confined core ( see Fig. ). In
compelling circumstances, it may also be made up of
two pieces of reinforcement; a U- stirrup with a hook and
a 10 diameter extension ( but not 75 mm ) at each
end, embedded in the confined core and a crosstie ( see
Fig. ). A crosstie is a bar having a hook with a 10
diameter extension ( but not < 75 mm ) at each end.
The hooks shall engage peripheral longitudinal bars.
6.3.2 The minimum diameter of the bar forming a hoop
shall be 6 mm. However, in beams with clear span
exceeding 5 m, the minimum bar diameter shall be 8
mm.

6.3.3 The shear force to be resisted by the vertical
hoops shall be the maximum of :
a) calculated factored shear force as per analysis
b) shear force due to formation of plastic hinges at
both ends of the beam plus the factored gravity load on
the span. This is given by ( see Fig.).
6.3.4 The contribution of bent up bars and inclined
hoops to shear resistance of the section shall not be
considered.
6.3.5 The spacing of hoops over a length of 2d at
either end of a beam shall not exceed
a) d/4, and
b) 8 times the diameter of the smallest longitudinal
bar, which ever is smaller.
The first hoop shall be at a distance not exceeding 50
mm from the joint face. Elsewhere, the beam shall
have vertical hoops at a spacing not exceeding d/2.
• Example-1 : Draw and detail the typical qualitative
reinforcement detailing of two span reinforced conerete
