4/28/2015 Secant Formula 55 of 62 Pre-stressed Concrete Stage 1 Tendons and reinforcement are positioned in the beam mould. Stage 2 Tendons are stressed to about 70% of their ultimate strength. Stage 3 Concrete is cast into the beam mould and allowed to cure to the required initial strength. Stage 4 When the concrete has cured the stressing force is released and the tendons anchor themselves in the concrete.

57
4/28/2015 Secant Formula 57 of 62 Post-tensioned Beams Stage 1 Cable ducts and reinforcement are positioned in the beam mould. The ducts are usually raised towards the neutral axis at the ends to reduce the eccentricity of the stressing force. Stage 2 Concrete is cast into the beam mould and allowed to cure to the required initial strength. Stage 3 Tendons are threaded through the cable ducts and tensioned to about 70% of their ultimate strength. Stage 4 Wedges are inserted into the end anchorages and the tensioning force on the tendons is released. Grout is then pumped into the ducts to protect the tendons.

59
4/28/2015 Secant Formula 59 of 62 When the tensioning force is released and the tendons are anchored to the concrete a series of effects result in a loss of stress in the tendons. The effects are : relaxation of the steel tendons elastic deformation of the concrete shrinkage and creep of the concrete slip or movement of the tendons at the anchorages during anchoring other causes in special circumstances, such as when steam curing is used with pre-tensioning. Total losses in prestress can amount to about 30% of the initial tensioning stress. Loss of Prestress
