Abstract:Due to its advantages, Prestressed Concrete has been used as a structural element in many buildings worldwide. In order to overcome large spans, limiting the formation of cracks, its application can be visualized, for example, in bridges, viaducts, and building slabs. These structures are executed by stretching steel cables with a subsequent release, introducing compressive stresses in the concrete. However, during this process, stress losses occur in the active reinforcement, requiring forecast by the designe… Show more
