Question: A 9 - meter Post - tensioned prestressed concrete gutter beam with a section dimensions shown in the figure. Assume the shear center is located

A 9-meter Post-tensioned prestressed concrete gutter beam with a section dimensions shown in the figure. Assume the shear center is located at 150mm from the top fiber. The beam is reinforced by a cable with an area of 190sq.mm. in a parabolic drape and with 4 pes.-20mm-dia. Rebars. Compute the following:
a). Initial Stresses for bending and shear stresses (25pts)
b). Final stresses at Top and Bottom fibres at total working load at centre span. (25p Uniform Liveload =2,850Nm and Concentrated Liveload =12KN
Tendons: Initial Stress, fs =1160MPa; Final stress, fs =985MPa;
Rebars: fs=138MPa, fy=
Concrete: f'c=9MPa, S.G.
Mmax=PL3+WL28
