A pre-tensioned rectangular beam 150 mm wide and 300 mm depth is prestressed with three straight tendons each having a cross-sectional area of 50 mm2 to an initial stress of 1200 N/mm2. 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 upto one decimal place) due to the elastic deformation of concrete is ______.4.8 |
