4. A simply supported prestressed concrete beam is 6 m long and 300 mm wide. Its gross
depth is 600 mm. It is prestressed by horizontal cable tendons at a uniform eccentricity
of 100 mm. The prestressing tensile force in the cable tendons is 1000 kN. Neglect the
self-weight of beam. The maximum normal compressive stress in the beam at transfer

The cross-section at mid-span of a beam at the edge of a slab is shown in the sketch. A portion
of the slab is considered as the effective flange width for the beam. The grades of concrete and
reinforcing steel are M 25 and Fe 415 respectively. The total area of reinforcing bars ( As ) is
4000 mm 2 . At the ultimate limit state, xu denotes the depth of the neutral axis from the top
fiber. Treat the section as under-reinforced and flanged ( xu 100 mm) .

4. A concrete beam prestressed with a parabolic tendon is shown in the sketch. The
eccentricity of the tendon is measured from the centroid of the cross-section. The
applied prestressing force at service is 1620 kN. The Uniformly distributed load of
