Note: 1: At support, 2-#10 are obtained by continuation of top anchor bars from midspan, and 1#10 is obtained by single bar bent up from left span and again going to bottom in right span.

Note:-2 : For external beam, though provided Mur appears to be very large compared to moment
acting on it, reduction in Ast is not possible due to requirement of minimum steel and depth
is decided from practical consideration )
