    [1] A 250 mm x 500 mm prestressed beam has a simple span of 6 m.

    The
    beam uses stress relieved with specified tensile strength fpu = 1, 325 MPa,
    fc’ = 35 MPa. The area of prestressed reinforcement in tension zone Aps =
    1,200 mm2, the specified yield strength of pressing tendons , fpy = 1,150
    MPa.

    1. Determine the value of the stress in prestressed reinforcement at


    nominal strength (fps).
    2. Determine the value of the depth of the compression block.
    3. Determine the ultimate moment capacity of the prestressed beam
    4. Determine the safe live load that the prestressed beam could carry if
    wc = 23.54 kN/m3

    SOLUTION:

    1. Prestessed reinforcement

    Check = = 0.867

    Use: , = ( )

    Bonded Tendons:

    = { ( ( ))

    = 0.85 - ( fc’ – 28 ) < 0.65 , = 0.85 - ( 35 – 28 ) = 0.80

    ( )( )
    = { ( ) = 1,325 { 1 - }
    ( )

    , Ans.
    2. Depth of compression block , a

    ( ( )
    . = = 0.334

    Check : = 0.36(0.80) = 0.288 , use = 0.288

    a = 0.423 d = 0.423(0.80)(430)

    a = 145.51 mm, depth of compression block, Ans.

    3. Ultimate Moment

    Mu = ( )( ) = (0.90(0.85)(35)(145.51)(250)( 430 – 145.51/2))

    Mu = 347.96 kN- m , Ans.

    4. Live Load

    Mu = , maximum moment at the midspan

    ( )
    wu = = = 77.32 kN/m

    wu = 1.2DL + 1,6LL

    wu = 1.2(23.54 kN/m3)(0.250m(.500m) + 1.6LL = 77.32

    LL = 46.12 kN/m , Ans.
