SECTION AT MIDDLE

Section properties

Creep is propotional to stress in concrete for stress upto 1/3 of concrete cube strength at transfer.
Loss of prestress is obtained from the product of the moduless of elastic of the tendon.
Required cube strength of concrete ater 7 to 14days from concreting= 36 N/mm2
40 N/mm2
Creep per unit length = 3.6E-05
4.0E-05 N/mm2
Calculate creep loss at tendon C at 15m length

fcu = 50 N/mm2
fc transfer = 40 N/mm2
1/3 of cube strength = 16.6667 N/mm2
Modification factor = 1.268

Creep coefficent = 5.1E-05 N/mm2

Material properties
Modules of elastisity strand = 2.0E+05 N/mm2

Modules of elastisity conc = 34000 N/mm2

Shrinkage per unit length = 2.0E-04

Total strand area = 5.4E+03 mm2
