I’m modelling a box girder bridge post-tensioned in abaqus 6.12, using a shell elements. For tendons, I’m using a truss elements, and I use TIE command for make interaction between shell and truss. For post-tension, I’m using a predefinied field-stress but I will want use a command PRESTRESS HOLD. If I use a PRESTRESS HOLD in Edit Keywords my Job is aborted. I will want use PRESTRESS HOLD but I don’t know if this metod is true.You know how to use this command??? I ask you this information because Abaqus manual is not clear. I’m sorry for my English. Your help will be highly appreciated.
