Cross Sectional Area given Compressive Stress Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Area of Beam Section = Prestressing Force/Compressive Stress in Prestress
A = F/σ_c
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Area of Beam Section - (Measured in Square Millimeter) - Area of Beam Section here refers to the area of cross section of the concrete section where the prestressing force was applied.
Prestressing Force - (Measured in Kilonewton) - Prestressing Force is the force internally applied to the prestressed concrete section.
Compressive Stress in Prestress - (Measured in Pascal) - Compressive Stress in Prestress is the force that is responsible for the deformation of the material such that the volume of the material reduces.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Prestressing Force: 400 Kilonewton --> 400 Kilonewton No Conversion Required
Compressive Stress in Prestress: 2 Pascal --> 2 Pascal No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

A = F/σ_c --> 400/2

Evaluating ... ...

A = 200

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.0002 Square Meter -->200 Square Millimeter (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

200 Square Millimeter <-- Area of Beam Section

(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)

What are the two Types of Internal Prestressing methods?

Pre-tensioning and post-tensioning. Pre-tensioned concrete is a variant of prestressed concrete where the tendons are tensioned prior to the concrete being cast. Post-tensioned concrete is a variant of prestressed concrete where the tendons are tensioned after the surrounding concrete structure has been cast.
