Answer to Problem 1CQ

The value of the product is the extent to which the product meets the performance criteria.

Explanation of Solution

The value of a product is the measure of determining the extent up to which the product adheres to its performance standards. The value of a product has a direct impact on the sale and the price of the product. For a product to have a good value, it should have low operational and maintenance costs, good resale value and so on. A product with good value is preferred by the consumer and the company can even quote a higher price for it which allows the company to make more profit.

Thus, the value of the product is the extent to which the product meets the performance criteria.

A prestressed simply supported 15 m span beam with rectangular box section is post-tensioned by straight high tensile steel wires as shown in Figure. The prestressing wires are placed at the center line of the flanges and initially stressed to 850 N/mm². The beam is required to carry a uniformly distributed superimposed load of 4.5 kN/m in addition to its weight. If the concrete stresses are not to exceed 17 MPa in compression and 1 MPa in tension at service stage, calculate the range of the total prestressing wires area required. Ignore prestressing force losses in your answer. (Ye kN/m³). = 24 2As 400 As 80 80; 750
