Problem 2
A Post-tensioned prestressed concrete beam is to carry a live load of 14.50
kN/m and a superimposed dead load of 12.80 kN/m. In addition to its own
weight (Assumed to be 4.75 kN/m) on a 17.80 m simple span with a 75
kN concentrated force at the midspan. Normal density concrete will be
used with design strength fe= 35 MPa and Pi= 1450 kN. Time-
dependent losses may be assumed at 17.55 percent of the initial prestress.
Determine the stress (MPa) at the extreme bottom fiber located at midspan
under the final stage.
