A procedure is presented for the design of simply supported beams, which makes possible the utilization of statically indeterminate composite action and favorable initial stress distribution to strengthen available beam sections. A variation of the Queen Post truss with a pretensioned tie rod is studied, with weight savings of more than 30% being realized. The techniques used are based entirely on elastic considerations.
