A) A post-tensioned concrete beam of rectangular section. 100mm wide and 300mm deep, is stressed by a parabolic cable with zero eccentricity at the supports and an eccentricity of 50mm at the centre of span. The area of the cable is 200mm2 and initial stress in the cable is 1200Nmm2. If the ultimate creep strain is 3010mmmm per N/mm modulus of elasticity of steel is 210mm2, compute the loss of stress in steel only due to creep of concrete.
