Question: A prestressed concrete beam has a cross section B = 2 3 6 m m and H = 6 2 7 mm , spans L

A prestressed concrete beam has a cross section B=236mm and H=627 mm , spans L=6m and has tendons located h=104mm from the bottom of the beam. The characteristic compressive strength of the concrete is 40Nmm2.
Its tendons have a characteristic strength of F=1,085kN and initial prestress losses are 29%.
At TRANSFER, what is the moment induced in the beam due to its self weight (Mswt)?
Give your answer in kNm to one decimal place and do not include units in your answer.
