    The document discusses the calculation of stress values (x1, x3, x4, x5) at different points of a structural member. It defines the compressive forces C1, C2, C3 due to different stress blocks and calculates them in terms of xu, b, and fck. It then uses moment equations involving the compressive forces and distances to solve for x2 and x4, obtaining x2 = 0.4153 xu and x4 = 0.64 xu.

    x1 = 0.5 x3 = 0.

    (3.5)
    From Fig. 3.4.21a:
    x5 = x3 +

    3
    4

    (xu - x3) = 0.43 xu + 0.75(0.57 xu)

    or
    x5 = 0.86 xu
    (3.6)
    The compressive force C1 due to the rectangular stress block is:
    C1 = b x3(0.446 fck) = 0.191 b xu fck
    (3.7)
    The compressive force C2 due to parabolic stress block is:
    C2 = b (xu - x3)

    2
    3

    (0.446 fck) = 0.17 b xu fck

    (3.8)
    Adding C1 and C2, we have
    C = C1 + C2 = 0.361 b xu fck = 0.36 b xu fck (say)
    (3.9)
    The non-existent compressive force C3 due to parabolic (concave) stress block
    is:
    C3 = b (xu - x3)

    1
    3

    (0.446 fck) = 0.085 b xu fck

    (3.10)
    Now, we can get x4 by taking moment of C2 and C3 about the top fibre as follows:
    C2(x4) + C3 (x5) = (C2 + C3) (x3 +

    xu x3
    2

    which gives x4 = 0.64 xu


    (3.11)
    Similarly, x2 is obtained by taking moment of C1 and C2 about the top fibre as
    follows:
    C1(x1) + C2(x4) = C(x2)
    which gives x2 = 0.4153 xu
