In a cantilever beam carrying gravity load, main reinforcement is provided

In a cantilever beam carrying gravity load, main reinforcement is provided Correct Answer Above the neutral axis

In the cantilever beam, the top fibres above the neutral axis are subjected to tensile stresses. So the main reinforcement is provided above the neutral axis.
