A singly reinforced rectangular concrete beam has a width of $$150$$ $$mm$$ and an effective depth of $$330$$ $$mm.$$ The characteristic compressive strength of concrete is $$20$$ $$MPa$$ and the characteristic tensile strength of steel is $$\,\,\,\,\,\,\,415\,\,MPa.$$

Adopt the stress block for concrete as given in $$IS$$ $$456$$-$$2000$$ and take limiting value of depth of neutral axis as $$0.48$$ times the effective depth of the beam.

The limiting area of tension steel in $$m{m^2}$$ is

Consider the following statements:

$$1.\,\,\,\,\,\,$$ The width-to-thickness ratio limitations on the plate elements under
$$\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,$$ compression in steel members are imposed by $$IS:$$ $$800$$ - $$1984$$ in order to avoid
$$\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,$$ fabrication difficulties.
$$2.\,\,\,\,\,\,$$ In a doubly reinforced concrete beam, the strain in compressive reinforcement is
$$\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,$$ higher than the strain in the adjoining concrete.
$$3.\,\,\,\,\,\,$$ If a cantilever $${\rm I}$$-section supports slab construction all along its length with
$$\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,$$ sufficient friction between them, the permissible bending stress in compression
$$\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,$$ will be the same as that in tension.

The TRUE statements are

In the design of beams for the limit state of collapse in flexure as per $$IS:$$ $$456$$ - $$2000,$$ let the maximum strain in concrete be limited to $$0.0025$$ (in place of $$0.0035$$). For this situation, consider a rectangular beam section with breadth as $$250$$ $$mm,$$ effective depth as $$350$$ $$mm,$$ area of tension steel as $$1500\,\,m{m^2},$$ and characteristic strengths of concrete and steel as $$30$$ $$MPa$$ and $$250$$ $$MPa$$ respectively.

At the limiting state of collapse in flexure, the force acting on the compression zone of the section is
