A rectangular concrete beam 250mm wide by 300mm deep is prestressed by a force of 540kN at a constant eccentricity of 60mm. The beam supports a concentrated load of 68kN at the center of a span of 3m. Neglect the self-weight of the beam. Determine the location of the pressure line from the top fiber at the support sections of the beam.
