L. Load Analysis: A floor beam is used to support the 3-m width of a reinforced concrete slab having a thickness of 120 mm. The slab serves as a portion of the ceiling for the floor below and it's bottom is coated with plaster. Furthermore, a 2.75-m high, 12.5-cm thick lightweight solic concrete block wall is directly over the top flange of the beam. The cross-sectional area of the wide flange steel beam is 36,645 mm2. Determine the total dead load carried by the steel beam (expressed in kN/m).

A prestressed concrete beam of section 250 mm wide by 600 mm deep is used over an effective span of 10 m to support an imposed load of 8 kN/m. If the unit weight of concrete is 25 kN/m³, find the magnitude of: (a) the concentric prestressing force necessary for zero stress at the bottom fibre at the midspan section when the beam is fully loaded. (b) the eccentric prestressing force of the tendon located at 200 mm from the soffit of the beam that would nullify the flexural stress due to the combined dead and imposed load. (c) Discuss the implication of the results in (a) and (b) above.
