• [RM Bridge] Why the stress and internal forces do not match?
    netsonic
    A simply supported beam has dead load, prestressing and Creep & Shrinkage (CS) at STG1 The internal forces (STG-SUM at the end of STG1: STG1E-SUM) are as below (e.g. node 112 at element 111) The...
  • [RM Bridge] Why stresses before and after "Grout" are the same?
    netsonic
    For post-tensioned beam before grouting, the net section is used, while after grouting, the transformed section is used. So the section properties before and after grouting are different, therefore the...

  • In LEAP Bridge Concrete can you consider bonded prestressing strands as “Reinforcement” when determining allowable tension stresses in a precast concrete beam?
    Matthew Willey
    I am using AASHTO LRFD and IDOT does not have conventional longitudinal reinforcing in their PPC IL-Beams, but IDOT does consider bonded prestressing strands as sufficient in resisting the temporary tensile...
