Question: A 2 4 i n . deep, 8 f t wide, 7 0 f t long double T beam carries a girder weight of 4

A 24in. deep, 8ft wide, 70ft long double T beam carries a girder weight of 420plf, a sustained dead load of 10psf, and superimposed live load of 30psf. It is prestressed with twelve 12 in. diameter 270ksi low-relaxation strands with a midspan eccentricity of 12.3in. and an end eccentricity of 5.0in. Section properties are Ac=401in2,Ig=20,985in4,yb=17.15in.,yt=6.85 in., and hf=2in. Concrete strength is 5000,fci'=3500, and R=0.80. Determine the class of the beam.
