Q. Consider the fallowing statements:
1. The minimum steel requirements of slabs are based on considerations of shrinkage an temperature effects alone, and not on strength.
2. Providing excessive reinforcement in beams can result in congestion, thereby adversely and compaction of concrete.
Which of the above statements is/are correct?

Q. For a composite steel-beam and RCC-slab floor construction
- the grade of concrete has to be M20 for the composite action to be satisfactory
- the longitudinal reinforcement of the slab has to be welded to the beam to develop monollthicity
