A concrete beam of rectangular section 100mm wide, area is 3×104, initial stress is 1200n/mm2 of 7mm diameter located at an eccentricity 50mm. Estimate the loss of stress due to creep of concrete using the ultimate creep strain method? Correct Answer 88

Es = 210kn/mm2, I = 225×106mm4, Ec = 35n/mm2, a = 3×104mm2, p = (1200×38.5×5) = 23×104n, ℇcc = 41×10-6mm/mm per n/mm2, αe = (Es/Ec) = 6, ϕ = 1.6, fc = (23×104/3×104+23×104×50×50/225×106) = 10.2n/mm2, Ultimate creep strain method loss = ℇcc fc Es = (41×10-6)(10.2)(210×103) = 88n/mm2.
