Two cables will lift an 18.500-meter-long prestressed pile weighing 3.806 kN/m. 1. Where should each cable be located in relation to the pile ends such that the greatest absolute value of the bending moment in the pile is as modest as possible? 2. At what distance from the pile ends should each cable be placed such that the pile's maximum absolute shear value is as modest as possible? 3. If a cable is placed 3.001 m from one end of the pile while the other end is on the ground, the pile will be lifted. Calculate the pile's maximum developed moment.

Question

 Two cables will lift an 18.500-meter-long prestressed pile weighing 3.806 kN/m.

1. Where should each cable be located in relation to the pile ends such that the greatest absolute value of the bending moment in the pile is as modest as possible?

2. At what distance from the pile ends should each cable be placed such that the pile's maximum absolute shear value is as modest as possible?

3. If a cable is placed 3.001 m from one end of the pile while the other end is on the ground, the pile will be lifted. Calculate the pile's maximum developed moment.
