Transient High-temperature Stress Relaxation of Prestressing Tendons in Unbonded Construction
Unbonded post-tensioned (UPT) flat plate concrete slabs are popular for modern continuous multiple bay floor assemblies due to economic and sustainability benefits (reductions in slab thickness and building selfweight) and structural advantages (decreased deflections over larger spans). Only limited research has been conducted on the performance of UPT flat plate slabs under fire conditions, ye...
متن کاملFeasibility Study of Measuring the Stress in Prestressing Tendons Using Induced Magnetic Field
This paper investigated experimentally the feasibility of the method to estimate the stress in the prestressing tendons of prestressed concrete bridges using the magnetic field induced by a moving electromagnet. This method is based on the Villari effect in which the magnetic permeability of prestressing tendons changes when subjected to a mechanical stress. The test results show high linearity...
متن کاملRelaxation of Prestressing Steel at Varying Strain and Temperature: Viscoplastic Constitutive Relation
Recent studies of excessive multidecade deflections of prestressed segmentally erected box girders revealed that more accurate predictions of the prestress loss due to steel relaxation are needed for the design of large-span creep-sensitive structures. In particular, the loss needs to be calculated as part of creep structural analysis, during which the strain of concrete to which the prestressi...
متن کاملUnbonded Post Tensioned Concrete Slabs in Fire – Part II – Modelling Tendon Response and the Consequences of Localized Heating
This is Part II of a two part paper dealing with the current state of knowledge of the fire-safe structural design and construction of unbonded post-tensioned (UPT) flat plate concrete structures. Part I provided detailed results of nineteen transient high temperature stress relaxation tests on restrained UPT tendons of realistic length and parabolic longitudinal profiles. Experimentation ident...
متن کاملShear load transfer in high and low stress tendons.
BACKGROUND Tendon is an integral part of joint movement and stability, as it functions to transmit load from muscle to bone. It has an anisotropic, fibrous hierarchical structure that is generally loaded in the direction of its fibers/fascicles. Internal load distributions are altered when joint motion rotates an insertion site or when local damage disrupts fibers/fascicles, potentially causing...
