A 4m cantilever beam 265 mm x 429 mm carries a uniformly distributed dead load (including self-weight) of 14 KN/m along the length and a concentrated live load of 37 KN at the free end. The beam is pre-tensioned with 12mm dia. strands causing a final prestress force of 468 KN. Determine the resulting stress at the top fiber at the fixed end of the center of gravity of the strands is at 115 mm above the NA of the beam, in MPa. Use WSD Method.

Question
A 4m cantilever beam 265 mm x 429 mm carries a uniformly distributed dead load (including self-weight) of 14 KN/m along the
length and a concentrated live load of 37 KN at the free end. The beam is pre-tensioned with 12mm dia. strands causing a final
prestress force of 468 KN. Determine the resulting stress at the top fiber at the fixed end of the center of gravity of the strands is at
115 mm above the NA of the beam, in MPa. Use WSD Method.
