Solution

The correct option is C increase in depth
The effective span to depth ratio for beam with different type of tension steel are obtained by multiplying the basic values of effective span to depth ratio with modification factor. For high strength deformed bars, the effective span to depth ratio should be multiplied by 0.8. It means that depth should be increased.
