Prestress in Tendon given Bursting Force for Square End Zone Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Prestressing Force = Prestress Bursting force/(0.32-0.3*(Side Length of Bearing Plate/Traverse Dimension of End Zone))
F = F_bst/(0.32-0.3*(Y_po/Y_o))
This formula uses 4 Variables

Variables Used

Prestressing Force - (Measured in Kilonewton) - Prestressing Force is the force internally applied to the prestressed concrete section.
Prestress Bursting force - (Measured in Kilonewton) - The Prestress Bursting force represents the resultant of the tensile stress in a transverse direction.
Side Length of Bearing Plate - (Measured in Centimeter) - Side Length of Bearing Plate represented the length of the bearing plate in which the burst force is acting.
Traverse Dimension of End Zone - (Measured in Centimeter) - Traverse Dimension of End Zone can be defined as the measurement of bearing plate in traverse direction.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Prestress Bursting force: 68 Kilonewton --> 68 Kilonewton No Conversion Required
Side Length of Bearing Plate: 5 Centimeter --> 5 Centimeter No Conversion Required
Traverse Dimension of End Zone: 10 Centimeter --> 10 Centimeter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

F = F_bst/(0.32-0.3*(Y_po/Y_o)) --> 68/(0.32-0.3*(5/10))

Evaluating ... ...

F = 400

What does Bursting Force mean?

Bursting Force is the capacity of a reinforcement in the section or substance to resist change when under pressure. A large bearing stress is generated in the axial direction of the concrete member around the bearing plate and a tensile stress is generated in the vertical direction of the tendons. This tensile stress is called a bursting force. The bursting force should be resisted by properly designed reinforcement.

What is End Zone Reinforcement?

The End Zone Reinforcement in each Direction (Ast) is transverse reinforcement is provided in each principle direction based on the value of bursting force. To restrict the splitting of concrete, transverse reinforcement (in addition to the reinforcement for shear) needs to be provided at each end of a member along the transmission length. This reinforcement is known as end zone reinforcement.
