The end block of a post-tensioned beam is 100 mm x 150 mm. A prestressing cable consisting of 7 wires of 6 mm dia strand and stressed to 800 MPa has to be anchored at the center of the block. The anchorage plate is 75 mm x 75 mm. If the concrete mix is M45 and the permissible bending stress in M. S. steel plate is 165 MPa, determine the thickness of the anchorage plate.

Composite Construction

Composite construction is the construction of structures in which two or more materials are used. Regarding structural engineering, composite construction is a construction where two materials are bound together in a technical manner such that both the materials act as a single unit to carry and transfer the load. The motives of composite construction are to increase the structural strength, make structures more aesthetic, and provide a sustainable environment.
