The end block of a post-tensioned beam is 100 mm x 150 mm. A prestressing cable consisting of 7 wires of 6 mm dia strand and stressed to 800 MPa has to be anchored at the center of the block. The anchorage plate is 75 mm x 75 mm. If the concrete mix is M45 and the permissible bending stress in M. S. steel plate is 165 MPa, determine the thickness of the anchorage plate.

The end block of a post-tensioned beam is 100 mm x 150 mm. A prestressing cable
consisting of 7 wires of 6 mm dia strand and stressed to 800 MPa has to be anchored at
the center of the block. The anchorage plate is 75 mm x 75 mm. If the concrete mix is
M45 and the permissible bending stress in M. S. steel plate is 165 MPa, determine the
thickness of the anchorage plate.
