    Jovelt Ponciano
    A straight pretensioned concrete of 12.2 meters long with a cross section of 380mm X 380mm is concentrically prestressed with 780mm2 of steel wires which are anchored to the bulkheads with an initial prestress of 1035 MPa. Modulus of elasticity of steel and concrete are 200,000 MPa and 33,000 MPa, respectively.

    Pre-Stressed Concrete Design (TE 523)

    Losses in Prestress
    Worksheet #3

    Name: ______________________________________
    Course & Year: ______________________________

    1. A prestressed concrete beam 100mm wide and 300mm deep with a span of 6 meters is prestressed
    by straight wires carrying an initial force of 150kN at an eccentricity of 50mm. Modulus of elasticity of
    steel and concrete are 210 kN/m2 and 35 kN/m2, respectively. The steel are of wires is 188m2.

    a. Determine the modular ratio.

    b. Determine the stress being experienced by the concrete at the level of the prestressing
    reinforcement.

    c. Determine the estimated % loss of stress in steel due to elastic shortening of concrete.

    2. A pretensioned prestressed beam 10 meters long with a dimension of 300mm wide and 500mm deep
    is prestressed by a bonded tendons of 10 low relaxation strands of 10mm diameter located at 100mm
    from the bottom of the beam. Modulus of elasticity of steel and concrete are 210 kN/m 2 and 35 kN/m2,
    respectively. Use 25 kN/m3 unit weight of concrete. Assume that prior to transfer the jacking force on
    the tendon was 0.8fpu.

    f’c = 40 MPa

    f’ci = 35 MPa

    fpu = 1860 MPa

    a. Compute the shrinkage loss at 7 days after moist curing. Assume that prior to transfer the relative
    humidity is 40%.

    b. Compute the loss in prestress due to creep (In the 7 day of the prestressed beam there’s still no
    superimposed loading applied to the beam).

    c. Compute the steel relaxation loss in prestress at 7 days. Use the value of the computed elastic
    shortening, creep and shrinkage of the concrete.

    d. Determine the total % loss after transfer of stress in steel.

    3. A 12-meter-long beam is post-tensioned from one end. The tendon has a parabolic as shown in the
    figure with a constant curvature. The jacking stress applied to the prestressing reinforcement is 1100
    N/mm2.

    Data:

    Wobble coefficient = 0.004 per m

    Curvature coefficient = 0.30

    Anchorage slip = 1.5mm

    Eps = 725,424 MPa

    a. Compute the percentage loss of prestress due to friction.

    b. Compute the percentage loss of prestress due to anchorage seating.

    c. Compute the total percentage loss at transfer if simultaneous jacking was used.
