Compression zoneTension
zone
Sec A-A Sec B-B
When T-shaped sections are subjected to negative moments, the flange
is located in the tension zone. Since concrete strength in tension is
usually neglected in ultimate strength design, the sections are treated asrectangular sections of width bw and when sections are subjected to
positive moments, the flange is located in the compression zone and
the section is treated as a T-section.
