The allowable compressive stress in high yield strength deformed bars used in doubly reinforced cement concrete beams is -

(a) 140

(b) 230

(c) m pbc

(d) 1.5 m pbc.

where m = modular ratio and pbc = bending compressive stress in concrete at the level of steel.

The correct Answer Is
(d) 1.5 m pbc
