Settling Length given Pressure Drop Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Settling Length = Prestress Drop/(2*Simplified Term*Prestressing force after Immediate Losses)
lset = Δfp/(2*η*P)
This formula uses 4 Variables
Variables Used
Settling Length - (Measured in Meter) - Settling Length is the length where the effect of anchorage friction is absent.
Prestress Drop - (Measured in Pascal) - Prestress Drop is the drop in applied prestress force due to strain in tendons.
Simplified Term - Simplified Term here represents the value which is equal to (μa+kx)/x.
Prestressing force after Immediate Losses - (Measured in Newton) - Prestressing force after Immediate Losses is force after immediate losses. It is also called as reduced value of prestressing force after elastic shortening, anchorage slip and loss due to friction.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Prestress Drop: 10 Megapascal --> 10000000 Pascal (Check conversion ​here)
Simplified Term: 6 --> No Conversion Required
Prestressing force after Immediate Losses: 20.01 Kilonewton --> 20010 Newton (Check conversion ​here)
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
lset = Δfp/(2*η*P) --> 10000000/(2*6*20010)
Evaluating ... ...

Prestressing Force after Immediate Loss when Reverse Friction Effect is Considered
​ LaTeX ​ Go Prestressing force after Immediate Losses = (Prestress Force at a Distance/(exp(Simplified Term*Distance from Left End)))+Prestress Drop
Prestressing Force at distance x when Reverse Friction is Considered
​ LaTeX ​ Go Prestress Force at a Distance = (Prestressing force after Immediate Losses-Prestress Drop)*exp(Simplified Term*Distance from Left End)
Loss of Prestress due to Slip
​ LaTeX ​ Go Prestressing Force = Tendon Area*(Modulus of Elasticity of Steel Reinforcement*Slip of Anchorage)/Cable Length
Slip of Anchorage
​ LaTeX ​ Go Slip of Anchorage = Prestressing Force*Cable Length/(Tendon Area*Modulus of Elasticity of Steel Reinforcement)

What is Settling Length?

Due to the setting of the anchorage block, as the tendon shortens, there is a reverse
friction. Hence, the effect of anchorage slip is present up to a certain length. This length is referred as settling length (lset). Beyond settling length, the effect is absent.

How to Calculate Settling Length given Pressure Drop?

Settling Length given Pressure Drop calculator uses Settling Length = Prestress Drop/(2*Simplified Term*Prestressing force after Immediate Losses) to calculate the Settling Length, The Settling Length given Pressure Drop is defined as the equation to find out length of beam from which effect of anchorage slip is absent. Settling Length is denoted by lset symbol.

How to calculate Settling Length given Pressure Drop using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Settling Length given Pressure Drop, enter Prestress Drop (Δfp), Simplified Term (η) & Prestressing force after Immediate Losses (P) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Settling Length given Pressure Drop calculation can be explained with given input values -> 41.66667 = 10000000/(2*6*prestressing_force_po).
