A doubly reinforced rectangular concrete beam has a width of $$300$$ $$mm$$ and an effective depth of $$500$$ $$mm.$$ the beam is reinforced with $$2200\,m{m^2}$$ of steel in tension and $$628\,m{m^2}$$ of steel in compression. The effective cover for compression steel is $$50$$ $$mm$$. Assume that both tension and compression steel yield. The grades of concrete and steel used are $$M20$$ and $$Fe250$$ respectively. The stress lock parameters (rounded off to first two decimal places) for concrete shall be as per IS $$456:200.$$

The moment of resistance of the section is
