ANALYSIS OF CRACKED PRESTRESSED CONCRETE SECTIONS: A PRACTICAL APPROACH
This paper presents a practical approach for analyzing the elastic behavior of cracked prestressed concrete sections of any shape, using existing section property software. The use of the results for estimating deflection and crack control is presented. The method is applicable to sections with any degree of prestress, from no prestress to full prestress. Examples are given, including the analysis of cracked composite sections. The procedural steps for analyzing cracked prestressed concrete sections are summarized.
