What is Types and Causes of Prestress Loss about?
Losses of prestress in concrete structures can be categorized as either short-term/immediate losses or long-term/time-dependent losses. Short-term losses include elastic shortening, friction, and anchorage slip during construction. Long-term losses include creep and shrinkage of concrete and relaxation of steel over time. Proper estimation of prestress losses is important for design.
