In the past century, a new form of concrete evolved called prestressed concrete. In prestressed concrete, initial compressive stress is

Category: Structural Analysis And Design
The structural analysis deals with the analysis and design of load carrying elements of any construction. It is a core branch of civil engineering. Structural analysis is difficult without the help of software but it also takes expertise to work with software as it needs a very high level of ability to quantify.
The role of a structure designer is to design the skeleton of the building and determine and calculate reinforcement.
Types of Losses of Prestress in Prestressed Concrete
Losses in case of Pre Tensioned Prestressed Concrete Loss due to Elastic Shortening: Suddenly, after applying the prestress to the
