Example 1
Calculate Msr for the 203 mm deep prestressed HCU shown below. The
initial prestressing force may be taken as 70% of characteristics strength
of the standard 7-wire helical strand. Take the final long-term losses as
24%. Geometric and data given by the manufacturer are as follows:
Ac = 135  103 mm2, I = 678  106 mm4, yt = 99 mm, fck = 50 N/mm2, Ec = 30

kN/mm2, fck (t) = 35 N/mm2, Eci = 27 kN/mm2, fp0,1k = 1750 N/mm2, Eps =
195 kN/mm2, Aps = 94.2 mm2 per strand ( = 12.5 mm) and cover = 40 mm.

Calculate Mur for the section given in Example 1. Manufacturer’s
data gives the breadth of the top of the HCU as b = 1168 mm.

Steel tensile forces, Fst =fs.Aps = (fsb)  7  94.2 = 1003  103 N

Since Fcc  Fst, a smaller depth of neutral axis, x must be tried.
