What is Elastic Shortening in Prestressing Methods about?

This document describes two methods of elastic shortening in concrete structures: pre-tensioning and post-tensioning. In pre-tensioning, tendons are tensioned before concrete is placed, while in post-tensioning the tendons are tensioned after the concrete has hardened. Both methods use jacks to apply tensile force to steel tendons embedded in the concrete, resulting in shortening and increased strength of the finished structure.
