M35 is minimum required concrete for prestressed concrete.

Here 35 is in N/mm2. So convert it into kg/cm2.

N/mm2 = 10 kg/cm2.

So 35 N/mm2 = 350 Kg/cm2.

So OPTION [D] IS CORRECT.

But in presented concrete min grade of concrete used is M40.

For Post tensioning work minimum grade of concrete as specified in IS 1343 is M35, while for Pre-tension prestressed work grade of concrete specified in IS 1343 is M40.

Clause 6.1 Table 1 IS 1343.

What minimum bread of concrete used in RCC?

Saurav said:   9 years ago
Minimum grade for pre stressed M45 & post stressed M-35.

Irfan khan said:   9 years ago
Right @Saksham.

The min grade of concrete for pre tension is m40.

Sudhakar said:   9 years ago
M35 for Post-tensioned concrete.

M40 for Pre-tensioned concrete.

Pre-tensioned and post-tension is the type of prestress beam.

So, the minimum concrete grade is option D = 350 kg/cm2.
