Hi,
I'm studying how ADAPT PT software compute the demand capacity depends on how many percent of PT to be considered in total moment strength with lateral moments change sign.
With the logical equation of Mhyp/Mtotal Cap. = % of Mhyp
But with my experiment consider negative and positive...
As per code:
(a) The average prestress fpc calculated for an area equal to the least cross-sectional dimension of the beam multiplied by the perpendicular cross-sectional dimension shall not exceed the lesser of 500 psi (3.5Mpa) and fc′/10.
Some saying that this is not mandated by the code...
Hi,
Just want to verify and seek your opinion regarding on the aci code for prestressed member.
Is it the 500psi (3.5Mpa) and fc'/10 is the maximum precompression for the beam in high seismic zone?
And for the special moment frame, Is it not allowed to terminate the prestressing steel before...
Hi,
I'm going to analyze concrete floor system with different loading. I want to know the effective mass for determining the natural frequency.
As per AISC DESIGN GUIDE SERIES 11, a live loads of 11 psf and 6 psf are recommended for vibration analysis for typical office and residential...
Hi,
I'm a newbie here in this forum.
Is anyone here can discuss how to calculate/design the external post tensioning with harped tendon for the retrofitting?
Thank you.
