Objectives: | It is aimed to provide the concepts of prestressing, design of prestressed elements, to explain the construction details in prestressed elements, to give an ability to apply knowledge of prestressed concrete to engineering problems. |
Content: | It includes the following topics; material, prestressing methods, loss of prestress, behaviour of isostatic beams under flexure, allowable stresses, full and partial prestressing, composite beams, prestressed beams, pre/final design for flexure, calculation of shear reinforcement, torsion, camber and crack checking, moment-curvature relations, continuous beams, compression and tension members, circular prestressing, prestressed slabs. |
