Abstract:
Natural frequencies of bridges have certain sensitivity to prestressing force, so the identification of effective prestressing force based on bridges' natural frequencies is a effective method. This paper uses Finite Element Methods to establish the finite element model of prestressed steel beam, and then conducts dynamic simulation analysis of the natural frequencies of the simply-supported bridges on the condition of different prestressing forces and different reinforcement eccentricity distance arrangements. Based on the results, it analyzes the law and the extent of prestressing force's in

Abstract:
When strengthening existing reinforced concrete structures, we can find many successful applications of post-tensioning. The method of substituted cable ducts is a very convenient especially in the case of strengthening existing reinforced concrete bridges whose load capacity can be increased up to 300 %. Strengthening of structures by post-tensioning is based on active influence of internal forces by prestressing force and radial forces that occur in places of bending the unbonded prestressing tendons.

Currently, the construction of toll roads in several regions of Indonesia is being carried out. One of them is the construction of the Tebing Tinggi-Inderapura Toll Road.

The steel wire is tensioned by pulling it using a hydraulic jack. When stress is applied, the beam loses its prestressing force.

Abstract:
This paper represents new approaches for calculating, designing, and optimizing prestressed arched trusses with a tie member. Structural systems with long spans, such as trusses, beams, frames, etc., are subjected to a considerable/substantial risk of losing load-carrying capacity because of the different types of loads used. Some traditional design methods define the values of prestressing force in the tie member and internal forces in the truss elements to avoid this load capacity loss. However, the accuracy and limits of the determination of the forces are not necessarily known. The authors

This paper focuses on the effect of the transverse reinforcement in concrete poles and its influence on torsional strength in an effort to simplify the governing Canadian prestressed concrete pole code (CSA A14-07). The rationale behind the CSA code values for amount, spacing, and direction of the transverse reinforcement is not apparent. A testing program consisting of 14 concrete pole specimens were produced to investigate the torsional response. The specimens were divided into two groups with different tip diameters. Within each group the spacing and direction of the wound helical transvers

The internal forces in a prestressed concrete structure are of special nature due to the existence of tendons. And flaws can be found in the traditional concept of secondary moment such that common computation method of secondary moment may produce unreasonable results. This article aims at getting a better understanding of internal forces in prestressed structures and solving the relevant problems. Starting from the basic principles of internal force analysis, a new system of internal forces is put forward by which the relationship between the compression resultant on concrete cross-section a

Buildings can be designed to limit the earthquake-induced damage to members that can easily be repaired. Self-centering moment-resisting frames can be used as effective structural systems for this purpose. Self-centering moment-resisting frames with prestressed cables are able to return the structure to its original position after the earthquake. The internal forces in self-centering moment-resisting frames are transferred between the beam and the column by post-tensioned cables. As a main member of self-centering connections, prestressed cables play a significant role in such systems. Cable t

The author took a rigid frame-continuous beam bridge for example, analyzed by means of plane finite element and space finite element methods. In the space model, corrugated pipes were built in order to consider the weaken effects to cross-sections. Aimed at the least well stage which is after prestressing and before grouting, spatial stresses were indicated. Final results indicate exceeded transverse tensile stresses caused by radial forces are the most important factor which led to bursting cracks.

In this paper, seven reinforced concrete beams (two contrast beams and five externally reinforced beams) were tested. The crack regularity under different tension stresses was analyzed through experimental data. Taking the stress mode under pressure for the triangle area, in the tension zone in the shape of a trapezoid , the crack resistance equation of externally prestressing reinforced rectangle beam is derived from balance method of the internal forces and moment, and the results coincide with the experiment results well.

The technique is based on the use of generic finite elements for modeling the beam and experimental time-domain response to simultaneously identify axial forces and generic parameters. Parameter updating is accomplished using a Simulated Annealing algorithm implemented for the solution of the prestress force identification problem. The effectiveness of the method was assessed in numerical simulations and was further verified on an experimental prestressed concrete b

This paper presents results of an analysis of representative cracking of U-beams and proposes a practical method for the transfer zone stirrup design.

Abstract:
The bond between prestressing (PS) steel and concrete plays an important role in pretensioned concrete members because the pretension force is directly transferred from PS steel to concrete by cutting or releasing the PS steels at the end of the members. While in capacity design approaches, designing for bond is considered to be a question of adequate strength along the bar length, in performance-based design approaches, the level of deformation as well as bond strength must be known and the bond-slip curves may give enough information.

To reduce the damage to reinforced concrete shear walls in earthquakes and repair costs, a self-centering wall with sloped plane friction dampers (SPFDs) is proposed. In addition to the SPFDs, the proposed wall includes a precast composite wall, steel wall toes, and post-tensioned (PT) tendons. The steel wall toes embedded in the base of the precast wall were used to improve its strength, and the SPFDs installed in the steel toes were used to increase its energy dissipation capacity.
