1) A concrete simply supported beam pre-stressed with parabolic tendons as

shown in the figure below. The pre-stressing force applied is 1200KN. The
Un-factored load applied to beam is 6KN live load and 15KN dead load
without including self-weight of a beam. Compute the extreme fiber stress
and draw the stress distribution diagram. use ϒc = 25KN/m3
A) At mid span (i) by stress concept
(ii) By strength concept
(iii) By load balance concept
B) At end span by stress concept

2) Let us say you assigned to design RC water tank for A town. The tank
required to store 76,550 Litters. The height of the tank 4.2m including 15cm
free board and the tank has 3.4m width. Design the side wall of the water
tanks using C-25 grade and class-I steel grade.

3) The G+1 reinforced concrete building is planned to build in Adama for
hospital purpose. The floor dimensions are shown on the following floor
plan including the roof which is RC flat slab. Since Adama is found in rift
valley zone which is seismic zone area and the building is highly important
for public safety it needs careful design to protect the building from
damaging by earth quake. Depending on the following data calculate base
shear and distribution of base shear on each floor.

 Height of each floor=3m

 Cross sectional area of all beams=25cm*30cm
 Cross sectional area of all columns=30cm*40cm
 Floor thickness including floor finishing=15cm
 Live load=3kN/m2
