Question: Strands are ( 1 ) / ( 2 ) inch dia. stress - relieved seven - wire with a center eccentricity of 1 3 .

Strands are (1)/(2) inch dia. stress-relieved seven-wire with a center eccentricity of 13.12. Use an AASHTO prestressed simply supported I-beam with a span of 34 ft which is 36 in deep. Its cross-section is below. fc=6000 psi, fc-allow =0.45 fc for total loads, 0.6 fc for temporary loads, fpu =270 ksi, fpi =189 ksi, fpe =145 psi, Ac =369 in2, Ig =50,979 in4, cb =15.83, Sb =3,220 in3, St=2,527 in3, Wd =384 lb/ft, WL =3600 lb/ft Design the number strands by looking at the tension at the bottom less that ft =12 under full load. Check the other stresses.
