Q1: If Md and Mt are the maximum bending moments due to dead load and live load respectively and F is the total effective pressure, for a balanced design of a prestreseed concrete beam of steel, isA ![]() B ![]() C ![]() D ![]() ANS:B - For a balanced design of a prestressed concrete beam, the maximum bending moment due to dead load (Md), the maximum bending moment due to live load (Mt), and the total effective prestressing force (F) must satisfy a specific relationship. In a balanced design, the tensile and compressive stresses resulting from the external loads and the prestressing force are such that they balance each other, resulting in a state of equilibrium and minimal deflection under service loads. The relationship for a balanced design can be expressed as: Md+Mt=F This equation states that the sum of the maximum bending moments due to dead load and live load must equal the total effective prestressing force.
