What is Partially Prestressed member?

Concrete elements that utilize a combination of conventional reinforcement and prestressed tendons are usually called partially prestressed concrete members and the concept is increasingly considered as an alternative solution to reinforced concrete or fully prestressed concrete. Here, tension and cracking in concrete due to flexure are allowed under service dead and live loads.

Which type of Steel is used in Prestressing?

Prestressed concrete uses high tensile strength steel that is manufactured by increasing the carbon content in steel compared to ordinary mild steel used in R.C.C. In prestressed concrete, the steel used is tensioned or prestressed. High-strength concrete is less liable to shrinkage cracks and has a lighter modulus of elasticity and smaller ultimate creep strain resulting in a smaller loss of prestress in steel.
