Extra Bar in the Beam?

s the beam is a flexural member,it fails due to the bending moment developed due to loading and to resists such bending it needs to provide extra bars at top as there is tension at bottom fibres and compression at top fibres

the extra bars are mainly provided to prevent negative bending moment.

It's is mainly provided where there are adjacent beams and chances of sagging.
