At transfer stage
Only dead load will act at transfer. Let moment due to dead load be
MD,
Stress in bottom fibre
σb=PA+P.e.ybI−MDybI
[Assuming compression as positive]
For no tension ,
σb=0
∴ MDybI=PA+P.e.ybI ...(i)
Similarly, stress in top fibre
σt=PA−P.eytI+MDytI
⇒ for no tension,
σt=0
MDytI=PeytI−PA ...(ii)
As it can be easily seen from equation (i) and equation (ii), that value of
MD coming from equation (ii) will be less. Hence, minimum dead load moment will be.
MDy1I=P.eyTI−PA
⇒MD×450400×900312=2000×103×240×450400×900312−2000×103400×900
MD×450×12400×9003=3.33
MD=180 kN.m Ans.
After loading :
Let moment due to live load be
ML at top-fibre
σt=PA−Pe.ytI+MDytI+MLytI
From above equation, it can be concluded that whatever be the value of
ML,σt is always.
Positive (i.e., compressive) . Therefore, value of
ML should be calculated by analyzing bottom fibre
At bottom fibre
σb=PA+Pe.ybI−MDybI−MLybI
For no tension
σb=0
⇒MLybI=PA+P.eybI−MD.ybI
ML×450400×900312=2000×103400×900+2000×103×240×450400×900312−180×106×450400×900312
⇒ML×450×12400×9003=5.5556+8.889−3.33
⇒ML=600 kN.m
