How the Reinforcement will be placed in a Simply Supported Beam?

Various types of Reinforcement Bars in simple supported rectangular concrete beams (SSB). How the reinforcement may be located in a simply supported beam.

Let's get started right here in the picture

 You have noticed different types of bars which will present in the beam, but they are all in  different colors (above in the picture) 

But in actual practice, they are all made up of with the same steel material and will be in the same color (as shown in the picture) 

 

They have given different colors so that reader can understand well. Now to dismantle the bars in the beam, and reassemble them in a second.

As in the picture, the green color bars

are the main striped bars in the beam which will be taking care of the bending moment of the beam.

The blue color bars 

are the main cranked bars. These bars are also called as a bent up bars which will be bent up at the ends at an angle of 45 degrees.

The red color bars 

are the hanger bars in this particular beam (as shown in the picture). These are provided just to support the stirrups.

Last not the least, the sky blue color bars in the beam (in the picture) 

 are called as stirrups, and those are provided along the lengthwise of the beam which will be taking care of the shear which will be produced in the beam.
