REMINDERS:
• The allotted time for the quiz is 2 hours (9:00 AM – 11:00 AM).
• Two assignments will be given. One is for the submission of the pdf
file containing your manual solutions and a selfie of you holding your
papers/work. The other one is for the summary of your answers.
• You should submit your summary of answers before 11:00 AM while
the pdf file can be submitted late.
• Outputs that are submitted late will have corresponding deductions.
• Always store necessary values in your calculator.
• Don’t round off answers unless it is already the final answer.
• Final answers must be up to 3 decimal places only.
• Input only the positive values of your answers in the summary.
Problem #1:
Note: Replace all zero digits of your ID
A building for office use is designed using the pre stressed hollow core slab number by number “2”
shown.
Use: X = Last 3 digits of ID number
Y = Last 2 digits of ID number
A = 4th digit of ID number
B = 5th digit of ID number
C = 6th digit of ID number
Properties of slab are as follows:
A = 1.2 x 105 mm2
e.g., ID # = 12-3456-789
St = Sb = 4.16 x 106 mm3
X = 789
The slab is pre stressed with 500+Y kN force at an eccentricity, e = 30+A mm Y = 89
below the centroid of the section. The weight of the slab is 2.35 kPa, super
imposed dead load is 2.0 kPa, live load = 2.4 kPa. The slab is simply A=4
supported on bearings at L = 5+B m. Allowable stresses at service loads are B=5
3.2 MPa in tension and 18.5 MPa in compression. Consider 15+C% loss of C=6
pre stress at service loads.
