Prestressed Force - an overview | ScienceDirect Topics
网页For prestressing tendons with a segment of arc or parabola, the radial pressure on concrete on the concave side is generated due to the prestressing force; for prestressing tendons with broken lines, a concentrated force on the concrete on the concave side at the turning point is generated due to the prestressing force.
网页prestressing force. For bonded tendons, stress losses are computed at that point on the span where flexural tensile stresses are most critical. In members with straight, parabolic or approximately parabolic tendons this is usually mid-span. In members with tendons

网页The correct design of the prestressing force (PF) distribution is very important to ensure the safety and serviceability of PSC structures. However, the prestress losses closely related to the PF distribution have generally been estimated using predictive equations specified in design codes or manuals, which were mostly derived from small-scale ...

网页Julio Ramirez. Definition of Prestressing. It consists of preloading the structure before application of design loads in such a way so as to improve its general performance. Objectives of Prestressing. Control or eliminate tensile stresses in the concrete (cracking) at least up to service load levels.
Prestressing - an overview | ScienceDirect Topics
网页Prestressing, a powerful technique in Civil Engineering, can be defined as the application of a predetermined internal force to a structural member in such a manner that the combined internal stresses in the member, resulting from this force and from external loading, will be confined within specific limits.

Prestressed Concrete - an overview | ScienceDirect Topics
网页The prestressing force is usually applied internally via steel cables or bars which are fixed or locked at the beam ends. The prestress can be applied to the beam before or after the concrete has hardened. In the former, the approach is referred to as applying a pretension force as illustrated in Figure 25.5. The tension in the prestressing ...
