Ultimate Shrinkage Strain given Loss in Prestress Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Shrinkage Strain = Loss in Prestress/Modulus of Elasticity of Steel Reinforcement
ε_sh = Δf_loss/E_s
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Shrinkage Strain - Shrinkage Strain is the value for strain caused due to shrinkage in concrete.
Loss in Prestress - (Measured in Pascal) - Loss in Prestress is the loss found in the prestress due to shrinkage or creep or anchorage slip etc.
Modulus of Elasticity of Steel Reinforcement - (Measured in Pascal) - Modulus of Elasticity of Steel Reinforcement is a measure of its stiffness.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

What is Shrinkage in Concretes?

Shrinkage of concrete is defined as the contraction due to loss of moisture. We know that concrete shrinks in volume when it dries up. This volume reduction takes place in the form of reduction of all dimensions. The shrinkage of concrete in prestressed members results in a shortening of tensioned wires and hence contributes to the loss of stress. The shrinkage of concrete is influenced by the type of cement, aggregates and the method of curing used.
