	Can we have a T concrete Beam with double reinforcement, or the reinforcement must be just located at the bottom of Beam? (considering we have a positive moment) If Mu > ∅Mn, T Beam must be double reinforced, is to correct? I am not able to find any tutorial where Mu > ∅Mn. I am looking for a tutorial where the reinforcement are located at bottom and top to T beam Can anyone help?

	Thanks for the tutorial, but this example for a rectangular Beam, I need a tutorial about T Beam with tension and compression.

	Double reinforced concrete beams are designed to resist tension in the bottom of the beam, and compression in the top of the beam, whether the beam is a Tee-beam or a rectangular beam. The basic design principles are the same for both types of beams under double such double loading... Ergo, the rectangular analysis is the the same for each, except for the top-width of the beams... __________________ ''illigitimi non carborundum...''(i.e.: don't let the fatherless (self-deluding,sabotaging, long-term-memory-impaired, knee-jerking, cheap-shotting, mono-syllabic, self-annointed, shadow-lurking, back-biting, off-topic-inquisitors) grind you down...)
