Question
![A 235 mm x 438 mm prestressed beam
has a simple span of 6 m. The beam uses
stress relieved tendons with specified
tensile strength fpu = 1,368 MPa and an
effective stress in prestressed
reinforcement after allowable for all
prestress losses fse = 750 MPa. The
prestressed beam is not to be grouted
after the application of the the prestress.
If the area of prestress reinforcement in
the tension zone is Aps = 1,140 mm2
applied 49 mm above the bottom of the
beam and fe' = 31.8 MPa, determine the
nominal moment of the beam.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F15b03d91-6ed8-40fd-a3ad-f94749d5212c%2F27145a5c-de35-42b8-b4a4-87892800438f%2Fxz2xtpn_processed.jpeg&w=3840&q=75)
