STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Strain in Concrete = Strain in Prestress Steel-Strain Difference
εc = εp-Δεp
This formula uses 3 Variables
Variables Used
Strain in Concrete - Strain in Concrete is the reduction in volume of concrete after the application of loading then change in volume with respect to volume of concrete before applied loading.
Strain in Prestress Steel - Strain in Prestress Steel is the value of strain (change in value /original value) in prestressing tendons.
Strain Difference - Strain Difference is the value of strain difference in prestressed tendons with adjacent concrete.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Strain in Prestress Steel: 1.71 --> No Conversion Required
Strain Difference: 0.02 --> No Conversion Required
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
εc = εp-Δεp --> 1.71-0.02

What is Strain difference?

The strain difference (∆εp) is the strain in the prestressed tendons when the concrete
has zero strain (εc = 0). This occurs when the strain due to the external tensile axial
load balances the compressive strain due to prestress.

How to Calculate Strain in Concrete at Level of Steel?

Strain in Concrete at Level of Steel calculator uses Strain in Concrete = Strain in Prestress Steel-Strain Difference to calculate the Strain in Concrete, The Strain in Concrete at Level of Steel is defined as the strain value in concrete for prestressed sections. For conventional steel strain in concrete is same as that of steel. Strain in Concrete is denoted by εc symbol.
