Question

ØA 200 x 400 mm PSC beam spanning 8 m carries a DL and LL, including its own weight, of 10 KN/m and prestressed with a final force of 100 KN at an eccentricity of 100 mm below the N.A. Find the stresses in the concrete at beam ends. And draw the fiber stress distribution on the concrete at mid-section due to axial force, prestress eccentricity, loads and total stress.
