A post-tensioned concrete T beam has a flange width of 508 mm and is 76 mm thick. The web is 127 mm wide and 533 mm deep below the flange to carry a uniform LL of 14.60 KN/m in addition to its dead weight. The beam has a simple span of 15 m. Ftc = 19.30 MPa Fsc = 22.10 MPa Ftt = -1.00 MPa Fst=1.40 MPa. Assume 15% losses and unit weight of concrete to be 23.56 KN/cu m. Draw Magnel's Diagram of your beam at midspan and choose suitable eccentricity for the cables. Check the stresses at transfer and working.
