A 3m cantilever beam 287 mm x 590 mm carries a uniformly distributed dead load (including self-weight) of 13 KN/m along the length and a concentrated live load of 32 KN at the free end. The beam is pre-tensioned with 12mm dia. strands causing a final prestress force of 559 KN. Determine the resulting stress at the top fiber at the fixed end of the center of gravity of the strands is at 103 mm above the NA of the beam, in MPa. Use WSD Method. < Previous Next ▸

Transcribed Image Text:A 3m cantilever beam 287 mm x 590 mm carries a uniformly
distributed dead load (including self-weight) of 13 KN/m along the
length and a concentrated live load of 32 KN at the free end. The
beam is pre-tensioned with 12mm dia. strands causing a final
prestress force of 559 KN. Determine the resulting stress at the top
fiber at the fixed end of the center of gravity of the strands is at 103
mm above the NA of the beam, in MPa. Use WSD Method.
