Tendon Force Table

Function 

Displays the effective prestressing force in each tendon in tabular form. The results can be used to evaluate the reduction in tendon force resulting from immediate and long-term prestress losses.

 

Call

From the Main Menu 

select [Post Tension] tab > [Analysis] group > [Analysis Result Table] > [Tendon Force Table]

 

Input

Records Activation Dialog

Tendon Group: Select the tendon group(s) for which tendon force results are to be displayed.

Reset: Restore the tendon group selection to its default state.

OK: Generate the Tendon Force Table using the specified tendon group selection.

Cancel: Close the dialog without generating the table.

 

Table: Result – [Tendon Force]

Tendon: Identification number of the tendon for which the force results are reported.

Elem: Element number

Part: Locations at which the tendon results are produced

Tendon Force (Jacking Stage) (kips): Displays the tendon force corresponding to the jacking stage defined in the tendon prestressing data.

Force (After Immediate Loss) (kips): Effective tendon force after accounting for immediate prestress losses such as friction, anchorage slip, and elastic shortening.

Force (After All Loss) (kips): Effective tendon force after accounting for both immediate and long-term prestress losses, including creep, shrinkage, and relaxation effects.
