Transcribed Image Text:A 250 mm x 500 mm prestressed beam has a simple span of 6m. The beam uses
stress relieved tendons with specified strength f,y 1350 MPa and an effective an
effective stress in prestressed reinforcement after allowable for prestress losses fe
760 MPa. The prestressed beam is not to be grouted (unbonded) after the application
of the prestress. If the area of prestress reinforcement in tension zone is Aps = 1000
mm applied 70 mm above the bottom of the beam and f'c 35 MPa, determine the
safe ultimate moment capacity of the beam. (kN-m)
