    Pre-Stressed Concrete Design (TE 523) : Deflection of Prestressed Concrete Elements

    Uploaded by

    This document contains a worksheet with 3 problems about determining deflection in prestressed concrete beams. Problem 1 asks to calculate the midspan deflection of a beam under initial prestress and when prestress is reduced under an imposed load. Problem 2 asks to calculate the central deflection of a beam prestressed by cables at transfer and under an additional live load. Problem 3 asks to calculate the short-term and long-term midspan deflections of a beam with a linearly varying prestressing cable under prestress, self-weight, and a concentrated live load.

    Pre-Stressed Concrete Design (TE 523)

    Deflection of Prestressed Concrete Elements


    Worksheet #4

    Name: _______________________________
    Course and Year: ______________________

    1. Determine the midspan deflection of the beam shown below:

    a. at transfer with an initial prestress force at 6800 kN.

    b. under an imposed load of 30 kN/m when the prestress force has been reduced to 4500 kN. Take
    self-weight of beam = 11.26 kN/m; I = 0.06396m4; E=28X106 kN/m2.

    Worksheet #4

    2. A prestressed concrete beam over a span of 8m is prestressed by means of a cable, composed of


    6 wires of 7mm diameter, has an eccentricity of zero at the supports and 50mm at the midspan. Initial
    stress in the cable is 1000 N/mm2. Neglecting all losses, find the central deflection of the beam:

    a. at transfer. Take Unit Weight of concrete of 24 kN/mm2, Area of concrete equals to 32 X 103 mm2,
    Modulus of elasticity, E= 38 kN/mm2, Radius of gyration of 72mm.

    b. under an additional live load of 2 kN/m.

    3. An 8m concrete beam is prestressed by a linearly varying cable where the eccentricity at the two
    supports is 25mm above the neutral axis of the beam while at midspan the eccentricity is 50mm below
    the neutral axis of the beam. The force in the cable is 350kN. The beam supports a concentrated load
    of 20 kN at center of the span. Beam dimension is 150mm wide X 300mm deep. Use Yc=24 kN/m3.
    Loss ratio = 0.8 and Creep Coefficient = 1.6

    a. Find the short-term deflection at midspan under prestress and self-weight. The Modulus of Elasticity
    of concrete is 38 kN/mm2.

    b. Find the long-term deflection at midspan under prestress, self-weight, and live load.
