(1) The beam section shown below has a simple span of 12m; determine the prestressing force using Magnel equations to satisfy the allowable stresses in concrete at transfer and service stages. The beam is prestressed by a single tendon having zero eccentricity at ends and maximum eccentricity at mid-span. Take wsw=48kNm,wSIDL=7kNm,wQ=15kNm,fc'=32MPa,fcp=25MPa, R=0.8, clear cover =30mm and cable duct diameter =60mm.
( 1 ) The beam section shown below has a simple
