When Xu=Xumax the section is a balanced one and at the time of limit state of collapse, strain in the concrete is 0.0035 and strain is steal is 0.87 fyEs+0.002

The moment of resistance will be maximum on limiting.

W.K.T

Mumax=C1×L1           =(0.36fkXumax)(d0.416Xumax)

Rearranging, [Take d common 2 x 2 by d]

Mumax=0.36Xumaxd[10.416Xumaxd]ld2fck

Case 1 :-

For Fe250,fy=250NM/mm2,Xumax=0.531Mumax=0.36×0.531×(10.416×0.531)ld2fckMumax=0.149fckld2...................(1)

Case 2 :-

For Fe415,fy=415W/mm2,Xumax=0.48dMumax=0.36×0.48×[10.416×0.48]fckld2Mumax=0.138fckld2...................(2)

Case 3 :-

For Fe500,fy=500N/mm2,Xumax=0.46dMumax=0.36×0.46×(10.416×0.16)fckld2Mumax=0.133fckld2..................(3)
