    The document discusses several problems involving the design and analysis of prestressed concrete beams. It provides examples of calculating prestress forces, beam camber, concentrated loads, bending moments, stress increases in post-tensioned slabs, cracking loads, and percent loss of prestress due to elastic shortening. Parabolic and straight tendon configurations are considered, with varying eccentricities, loads, and material properties. Solutions are determined using methods like load balancing.

    New Section 3 Page 1


    A prestressed concrete beam having size 250 x 500 x 10000 mm is provided with parabolic tendons placed at 100
    mm at mid span from the bottom and at the mid of cross-section at support. Determine the total uniform
    distributed load applied including self-weight by load balancing method. Take three cables each having 12 wires
    with each 5mm diameter. Tensile stress in tendon is 1100 MPa.

    New Section 3 Page 2


    A prestressed concrete beam has size 250 x 500 mm is prestressed by a straight tendon having e = 100mm
    throughout the length of 10m long beam. The prestress force is 1000 kN. Determine the camber, due to (a)
    tendon only; (b) tendon + DL; (c) tendon + DL + LL. Take E c = 3.8x104 MPa.

    A prestressed concrete beam having length 10m and size 250mm x 500mm is subjected to central point load.
    The tendon has eccentricity 0 to 100mm varying linearly from the support to the mid span. Determine the value
    of concentrated load by load balancing method. Take prestress force = 1000 kN.

    A post-tensioned concrete slab spanning in one direction over 8 m is 300 mm deep with tendons housed in ducts
    spaced at 200 mm centres and are located at an eccentricity of 100 mm. The slab supports a live load of 2.56 kN/m
    over a width of 200 mm. Calculate the increase in steel stress due to the following conditions:
    (a) The ducts are grouted so that the strain in steel and adjacent concrete is equal.
    (b) The ducts are ungrouted so that the tendons can move without friction assuming the modular ratio as six and
    density of concrete as 24 kN/m3.

    A rectangular concrete beam of cross-section 120 mm wide and 300 mm deep is prestressed by a straight cable
    carrying an effective force of 180 kN at an eccentricity of 50 mm. The beam supports an imposed load of 3.14
    kN/m over a span of 6 m. If the modulus of rupture of concrete is 5 N/mm2, evaluate the load factor against
    cracking.

    A prestressed concrete beam is shown in figure below. Determine the maximum sagging bending moment applied on
    the beam. Take fcc= 14 MPa and fct = 1 MPa.

    A concrete beam is prestressed by a cable with an initial stress of 1000 N/mm2 in the wires. The grade of concrete
    in the beam is M-50. The beam is located in an area having a relative humidity of 50 per cent. The beam is exposed
    to the environment on three sides having a depth of 400 m and a width of 300 mm. The beam was cured for seven
    days before it was prestressed. Using the Indian Standard Code method, estimate the loss of stress in steel due to
    shrinkage of concrete at the age of (a) 28 days and (b) 70 years. Assume modulus of elasticity of steel as 210
    kN/mm2.

    A rectangular concrete beam of size 120 x 200mm is prestressed by a pre-tensioning through a force of 150
    kN at an eccentricity of 20mm. The area of tendon is 187.5 mm2. Take Es = 2.1 x 105 MPa, Ec = 3 x 104 MPa.
    Determine the % loss due to elastic shortening.
