Δfp = (Δ*Ap*Es)/(lset*0.5)
This formula uses 5 Variables
Variables Used
Prestress Drop - (Measured in Megapascal) - Prestress Drop is the drop in applied prestress force due to strain in tendons.
Slip of Anchorage - (Measured in Millimeter) - Slip of Anchorage is the distance by which the anchorage gets slipped when the force is transmitted from anchorage to tendon.
Steel Area in Prestress - (Measured in Square Millimeter) - Steel Area in Prestress is the total cross sectional area of tendons.
Modulus of Elasticity of Steel Reinforcement - (Measured in Megapascal) - Modulus of Elasticity of Steel Reinforcement is a measure of its stiffness.
Settling Length - (Measured in Millimeter) - Settling Length is the length where the effect of anchorage friction is absent.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Slip of Anchorage: 5 Millimeter --> 5 Millimeter No Conversion Required
Steel Area in Prestress: 0.25 Square Millimeter --> 0.25 Square Millimeter No Conversion Required
Modulus of Elasticity of Steel Reinforcement: 200000 Megapascal --> 200000 Megapascal No Conversion Required
Settling Length: 41.6 Meter --> 41600 Millimeter (Check conversion here)
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
Δfp = (Δ*Ap*Es)/(lset*0.5) --> (5*0.25*200000)/(41600*0.5)
Evaluating ... ...

10+ Force Variation Diagram and Loss Due to Anchorage Slip Calculators

Settling Length given Prestressing Force Immediately after Loss
Go Settling Length = sqrt(Slip of Anchorage*Steel Area in Prestress*Modulus of Elasticity of Steel Reinforcement/(Prestressing force after Immediate Losses*Simplified Term))
Prestressing Force after Immediate Loss when Reverse Friction Effect is Considered
Go Prestressing force after Immediate Losses = (Prestress Force at a Distance/(exp(Simplified Term*Distance from Left End)))+Prestress Drop
Prestressing Force at distance x when Reverse Friction is Considered
Go Prestress Force at a Distance = (Prestressing force after Immediate Losses-Prestress Drop)*exp(Simplified Term*Distance from Left End)
Pressure Drop when Anchorage Slip and Settling Length are Considered
Go Prestress Drop = (Slip of Anchorage*Steel Area in Prestress*Modulus of Elasticity of Steel Reinforcement)/(Settling Length*0.5)
Area of Prestressing Steel given Settling Length
Go Steel Area in Prestress = 0.5*Prestress Drop*Settling Length/(Slip of Anchorage*Modulus of Elasticity of Steel Reinforcement)
Anchorage Slip given Settling Length
Go Slip of Anchorage = 0.5*Prestress Drop*Settling Length/(Steel Area in Prestress*Modulus of Elasticity of Steel Reinforcement)
Loss of Prestress due to Slip
Go Prestressing Force = Tendon Area*(Modulus of Elasticity of Steel Reinforcement*Slip of Anchorage)/Cable Length
Slip of Anchorage
Go Slip of Anchorage = Prestressing Force*Cable Length/(Tendon Area*Modulus of Elasticity of Steel Reinforcement)
Settling Length given Pressure Drop
Go Settling Length = Prestress Drop/(2*Simplified Term*Prestressing force after Immediate Losses)
Pressure Drop given Setting Length
Go Prestress Drop = 2*Prestressing force after Immediate Losses*Simplified Term*Settling Length

Pressure Drop when Anchorage Slip and Settling Length are Considered Formula

Prestress Drop = (Slip of Anchorage*Steel Area in Prestress*Modulus of Elasticity of Steel Reinforcement)/(Settling Length*0.5)
Δfp = (Δ*Ap*Es)/(lset*0.5)

What is Settling Length?

Due to the setting of the anchorage block, as the tendon shortens, there is a reverse
friction. Hence, the effect of anchorage slip is present up to a certain length. This length is referred as settling length (lset). Beyond settling length, the effect is absent.

What is wobble effect in prestressed concrete?

If the profile of cable is linear, the loss will be due to straightening or stretching of the cables called Wobble Effect. If the profile is curved, there will be loss in stress due to friction between tendon and the duct or between the tendons themselves.
