What is Understanding Prestress Losses in Concrete about?
Losses in prestress can occur due to several factors including elastic deformation of concrete, shrinkage of concrete, creep of concrete, relaxation of steel, and changes in temperature. The initial prestress is reduced over time from when it is transferred due to these losses. Accurately estimating the magnitude of prestress loss is important for design.
