Design of Unsymmetrical I-Section (Approx Method)

1) The document describes the design of a prestressed unsymmetrical I-section beam using an approximate method. 2) Key inputs include the concrete strength, span length, live load, member dimensions, and material properties. 3) The solution involves calculating the moments and stresses at various locations along the beam under working and transfer conditions to ensure design requirements are satisfied.
