Use ACI 318-14 Table 25.4.2.2 to determine the development length for the straight tension bars (no hooks) in a rectangular beam with b = 17 in. and d = 20 in., five galvanized No. 9 Grade 60 bars placed in the bottom of the beam, and No. 4 Grade 60 stirrups located every 8 in. along the span. Assume 7,000-psi lightweight concrete and a clear cover of 1.75 in.
