Question 9

A haunched (varying depth) reinforced concrete beam is simply supported at both ends, as shown in the figure. The beam is subjected to a uniformly distributed factored load of intensity 10 kN/m. The design shear force (expressed in kN) at the section X-X of the beam is ___________.

Question 10

A rectangular concrete beam 250 mm wide and 500 mm deep is prestressed by means of 20 wires of high tensile steel each of 8 mm diameter located at 100 mm from the neutral axis of the beam at a given section. The effective prestress in the wires is 700 MPa. The maximum sagging moment due to live load which this section of the beam can withstand without causing tensile stresses at the bottom face of the beam is _____ kNm. Neglect the self weight of the beam.

Question 11

A pre-tensioned rectangular concrete beam 150 mm wide and 300 mm depth is prestressed with three straight tendons, each having a cross-sectional area of 50 mm2, to initial stress of. The tendons are located at 100 mm from the soffit of the beam. If the modular ratio is 6, the loss of prestressing force (in kN, up to one decimal place) due to the elastic deformation of concrete only is ______

Question 12
