1 SECTION 1 INTRODUCTION TO POST-TENSIONED CONCRETE DEVELOPED BY THE PTI EDC-130 EDUCATION COMMITTEE

2 NOTE: MOMENT DIAGRAM CONVENTION In PT design, it is preferable to draw moment diagrams to the tensile face of the concrete section. The tensile face indicates what portion of the beam requires reinforcing for strength. When moment is drawn on the tension side, the diagram matches the general drape of the tendons. The tendons change their vertical location in the beam to follow the tensile moment diagram. Strands are at the top of the beam over the support and near the bottom at mid span. For convenience, the following slides contain moment diagrams drawn on both the tensile and compressive face, denoted by (T) and (C), in the lower left hand corner. Please delete the slides to suit the presenter's convention.

3 REVIEW: FUNDAMENTALS OF PRESTRESSED CONCRETE NEW: DIFFERENCES BETWEEN PRE-TENSIONING AND POST-TENSIONING

4 REVIEW OF REINFORCED CONCRETE Critical Point for Cracking Uncracked Stages of Behavior Cracked (~Elastic) Ultimate

5 REVIEW OF REINFORCED CONCRETE Moment M n M y Large deflections due to cracking M cr Steel is not engaged until after cracking Curvature

6 REVIEW OF REINFORCED CONCRETE Reinforcement is PASSIVE Steel crosses cracks, but does not prevent them

7

8 QUESTION TO PONDER Suppose a R/C beam has too much cracking and too much deflection. How might you propose to fix it? (i.e. not replace it) Tension (bending) + Compression ( squeezing ) = Net Zero Stress Sqeezed Before Loading (Pre-compressed): Pre-Compression ( prestressing ) + Tension (bending) = Net Zero Stress

9 Prestressing: Concrete pre-compressed before loading in bending (flexural tension) HOW TO BUILD IT? 1. Pre-Tensioning: Steel tensioned before concrete is placed 2. Post-Tensioning: Steel tensioned after concrete is hardened Prestressing is ACTIVE can prevent cracks from forming

10 PRE-TENSIONING 1. Tension Strands 2. Cast Concrete Bond strands to concrete 3. Cut Strands Transfer force to concrete

11 POST-TENSIONING Section 1. Cast Concrete with Duct 2. Feed Strands through Duct 3. Tension Strands 4. Grout Duct (or other corrosion protection)

12 POST-TENSIONING Post-tensioning can take on any profile Draped configurations are much more common than straight tendons Why?

13 Force Transfer by Steel-Concrete bond PRE-TENSIONING Force Transfer at end anchor Post-Tensioning Strain Compatibility and Force Equilibrium: Steel held at length longer than it wants to be: Tension Concrete compressed shorter than it wants to be: Compression

14 Pre-Tensioned elements are often precast in a factory and shipped to the site Post-Tensioned elements can be cast and tensioned in the final location (cast-in-place). They can also be precast.

42 ECCENTRIC PRESTRESSING Eccentricity in prestressing: - Desirable at midspan - Not productive, even detrimental, at end of span Strategies for pre-tensioned systems: - Draped / harped profiles Temporarily held in place before concrete is hardened - Debonding Not all strands are active at end of span Strategies for post-tensioned systems: - Install ducts in desired profile

43 COMMON CONFIGURATIONS Pre-tensioning: Draped Debonded Post-tensioning:

44 PROBLEM FOR THOUGHT Where should the prestressing be placed? Tension Moment Diagram Tension (T)

45 PROBLEM FOR THOUGHT Where should the prestressing be placed? Option 1 Tension (T) Moment Diagram Good: Efficient at midspan Easy to construct Tension Bad: Counter-productive over support

46 PROBLEM FOR THOUGHT Where should the prestressing be placed? Option 2 Tension (T) Moment Diagram Good: Efficient over support Easy to construct Tension Bad: Counter-productive at midspan

47 PROBLEM FOR THOUGHT Where should the prestressing be placed? Option 3 Tension (T) Moment Diagram Good: Efficient over support Efficient at midspan Tension Bad: Difficult to construct

48 PROBLEM FOR THOUGHT Where should the prestressing be placed? Option 4 Tension Moment Diagram No net eccentricity Tension No net eccentricity Requires post-tensioning; very difficult to achieve by pretensioning (T)

49 SUMMARY: PRESTRESSED CONCRETE Efficient use of materials concrete maintained in compression, crack control Smaller deflections/thinner members Longer spans Corrosion resistance Less material; reduced environmental impact
